Plug and Play standard. It is also possible to address the printer directly from the kiosk software without using drivers.

The loop generating presenter mechanism handles documents of various lengths. It holds the printout until printed, then cuts and presents the complete printout to the customer. The retractand-retain version of the printer can retract uncollected printouts into a wastebasket inside the kiosk.

A flip-up print module gives the operator access to the paper path, and print head, for maintenance purposes.

Installation Considerations

15

Electrostatic Discharges, and Earth Currents

Preventing ESD and earth currents from affecting the printer operation requires proper connection of the printer chassis to protective earth through a mounting platform or through a separate earth conductor.

Ambient Light

There is an optical sensor just inside the paper exit at the front of the printer.

To ensure proper printer operation, design the printer enclosure so that it prevents direct sunlight or light from indoor lamps from reaching the sensor through the paper exit.

Paper Level Sensors

21

Paper Level Sensors

The printer has inputs for one paper-near-end sensor, and one weekend sensor.

Figure 7 • Paper Level Sensor Indicators on Roll Holder

Optical weekend sensor.

Adjustment range equals approximately 30 to 150 m of paper

Lock screw

Optical paper-near-end sensor. Activated when a couple of meters of paper remain.

25.7

SW98052

The paper-near-end sensor alerts the system when a couple of meters of paper remain on the roll. The purpose of this sensor is to get an early alert so that you can replace the paper roll in time in remotely located kiosks.

The weekend sensor should alert when the remaining paper does not last over a weekend. A reason to use this sensor is that it is more expensive to get a service technician out on a weekend or holiday than it is to replace the roll before it is totally empty.

The Zebra 150 mm paper roll holders are equipped with paper-near-end sensor only, while the

250 mm roll holders have both paper-near-end and weekend sensors.

When installing the Zebra roll holder just connect the cable from the roll holder to connector

J1 at the back of the printer. See Figure 1, Printer Exterior, Rear View , on page 9 .

If you use custom designed roll holders, connect the sensors according to

Figure 8, Paper-

near-end Sensor Connection, on page 22 .

Operation


24 Operation

Installing a Paper Roll

Installing a Paper Roll

1.

Turn the new paper roll as shown. The paper should be inserted into the printer with the temperature-sensitive side up.

Figure 9 • Paper Roll Orientation

2.

Tear off a full turn of the paper (approximately 0.5 m) from the new paper roll.

Caution • This is important since the outer end of the paper is usually fixed to the roll with some type of glue or self-adhesive substance that might otherwise cause paper jam or even print head damage.

Figure 10 • Tear off 0.5 m from the new paper rol l

3.

Make sure the printer is turned ON.


4.

Cut the paper in a suitable angle. See

Figure 11 .

Note •

The paper sensor is on the same side as the blue paper release lever (where the arrow points in

Figure 12, Insert the New Paper, on page 25 ). If the paper is cut in a direction

opposite to that as shown in the figure above, the sensor will not detect the paper.

5.

Insert the paper through the paper entry opening at the back of the printer.

The printer will now feed, cut and eject a printout, and then automatically go on-line.

Note •

In high temperature and high humidity, the paper may lose its stiffness resulting in paper jam at automatic paper loading. In such cases, load paper manually.

Figure 12 • Insert the New Paper


26 Operation

Clearing Paper Jams

Clearing Paper Jams

Should a paper jam occur, follow the procedure below:

1.

Tear off the paper close to the paper roll and open the print module.

Figure 13 • Open the Print Module

2.

Lift the print head by pushing the paper release lever upwards.

3.

Remove all jammed paper by gently pulling the paper up and out of the print module.

Make sure the paper path is clear and then close the printhead.

Caution • NEVER pull paper backwards through the print mechanism.

Programming

There are two completely different ways of setting up the printout: Text oriented and driver oriented style.

Command Code The printout can be seen as the page of a simple word processor. You send text and graphics to the printer, which prints the information in the same sequence as the data is received. Design features are limited to the font stored in the flash PROM of the printer.

It is possible to select a fixed page length. If you do that, text and logotypes can also be printed in landscape orientation.

There are two text cursors, one for portrait, and one for landscape. The start positions of the cursors are the upper left corner for the portrait

cursor, and the upper left corner for the landscape cursor, see Ticket

Styles on page 28

. You can switch between these cursors at any time; the cursor will retain its last position on the ticket.

Driver oriented All TTP 70x0 printers can print documents through a driver. When a

Windows driver is used, you can use any Windows program to design the ticket with text, graphics, bar codes or whatever you want to print and in any orientation you want.

The Windows driver issues all the necessary commands. By setting up printing preferences in the driver you select how the printer should cut and present the printout.

How The Commands Are Described

Mnemonic

Purpose of command

ESC ! n1

1B 21 n1

Select font

Decimal representation of command

Hex representation of command

SW 03002

Mnemonic

Is the popular command name that should be easy to remember.

Hex

Give the command in hex representation

Decimal

Give the command in decimal representation

Values

n1, n2, etc. represents values that you set with the commands. What you should enter here depends on what you want the command to do.

Examples

Command examples are formatted in Courier and typed in the same way as used in the

Zebra TTP editor:

<ESC>&P<1><19>

Where <ESC> means the escape character 27 decimal (hex 1B). Numbers between less-than and greater-than characters, for example <15>, means 15 decimal (hex F). When the numbers indicate a hex value, h is appended to the number.

Example • <65>

, <h 41> and A are three different ways of expressing the character A.


30 Programming

How The Commands Are Described

Two-Byte Character Definitions

Some commands and parameters are used with a two-byte value definition because the internal structure of the printer's firmware limits access to values greater than 255. To represent values greater than 255 in this two-byte format, divide the value by 256. The whole number (quotient) is the value of the leading byte and the remainder (modulo) is the value of the trailing byte.

:

Example • To represent 731 in two-byte notation, divide 731 by 256.

731 ÷ 256 = 2 with a remainder of 219 (2 x 256 + 219 = 731)

Therefore, the two-byte representation of 731 is <2><219>.

Software Command Syntax

The commands in this section are grouped after what they do, and these groups are sorted in a theoretical usage sequence. It starts with commands for specifying the printed page — through text-and-graphics commands — to cut-and-present commands. System and status commands are presented at the end.

Page Setup

Page setup is performed with parameters instead of dedicated commands. This makes it possible to store the setup in the non-volatile parameter memory. To minimize doubling of functions the page setup commands have been removed from this manual. The parameters to

use are described under Printable Area on page 86 .

The number of characters in the string. To avoid having to count characters you can set n5 to 00h (null) and then terminate the text string with null.

The text string. If text string length is specified with n5, the length must be exactly the number of characters specified; otherwise the printer will stop, waiting for more characters.

After the string has been printed, the cursor will return to the position it had before the string command was issued.

Note • The <ESC>t command clears any text preceding it on the same line. Commands will not be cleared.

Note • The Y print-position only works if fixed page length is used. Start a page by specifying page length for example <ESC>C<4><160>

Backspace

Moves the print-position one step to the left. Backspace can be used to combine characters.

For instance to print a Ø, send text commands O BS / to the printer, and the slash will overprint the O.

Only one backspace can be used at a time. Excessive backspaces will be ignored.

Carriage Return

By default, carriage return is ignored.

By changing the default settings, you can:

1.

Interpret is as <CR> which returns print position to beginning of line without line feed.

2.

Interpret <CR> as <CR><LF> which inserts line space as specified by the line spacing setting (see parameter p13), and returns the print position to beginning of the line.

See “Carriage return and line feed behavior” under

CR/LF Behavior on page 78

LF

0A hex

10 decimal

Linefeed

Linefeed is interpreted as <CR><LF> by default. This inserts line spaces as specified by the line spacing setting (see parameter p13), and returns the print position to beginning of the line.

<LF> also converts text from the input buffer to pixel lines and stores them in the line buffer, ready to be printed.

By changing the default settings, you can:

1.

2.

Interpret <LF> as Linefeed. This inserts line space as specified by the line spacing setting

(see parameter

Form Feed

Prints data from the input buffer and feeds the paper to the top of the next page.

In fixed document length (FORM-mode) this command prints data in the input buffer and feeds the paper to the top of next page.

In variable document length mode <FF> advances to the minimum page length. If the printout already is longer than the minimum page length, <FF> does not feed the paper at all.

In black-mark mode, the <FF> command looks for a black mark, see <ESC>Z

Cut and Eject

If the printout length is too short, paper-feed is added until the minimum printout length (set by parameters 37 and 38) is reached, before execution of the Cut command.

Note • The cut position is 17 mm before the print line. This makes the last 5 lines on a page end up in the beginning of the next page. To get the cut after the text, Please set parameter 49 to auto.

You can also use <RS> together with the paper advance command:

To avoid thin strips of paper in the printer, multiple cut commands without paper feed inbetween will not be performed. If the printout length is too short, paper-feed is added until the minimum printout length is reached, before execution of the cut command.

See Also Note on cut position for the <RS> command above.

Note • Use the cut command if you want full control over the printer from your system. But remember that you also must add commands to feed to the correct cut position and eject the paper so that the customer can get hold of it.

Note • Top margin settings that moves the paper counts as paper feed.

Eject (run presenter)

<ESC><FF>

ejects the document through the presenter module. Variable n represents the number of eject-steps.

One step is approximately 2 mm

The maximum number of steps is 255

Normally, this command is placed after a cut command (<ESC><RS>) to partially eject the printout to the customer. Set the number of eject steps so that a good portion of the printout is retained in the presenter module, avoiding that the printout drops to the floor.

Another use of the command is to eject a part of a long document without preceding cut. The reason to do this is to limit the size of the loop build-up in the presenter.

Note •

The loop is limited to the value set by <ESC>f<n> to avoid paper jam. The default setting of n=18, gives a loop of just above 0.5 m. When this length has been looped, the printer presents that part of the printout. Then, without cutting the paper, it continues to print the rest of the printout.

This bit indicates that an error code is available. Use <ESC><ENQ><1> to fetch it.

This bit tells you that there are data in the printer that have not yet been printed. There are two possible reasons for that:

1) The last command received by the printer was not a command that triggers a printout.

2) The printer is printing

When parallel cable is connected, both printer and host computer must have been off to set this bit. This is because the interface powers the

RAM in the printer.

This paper-near-end bit differs from the <ESC><ENQ><2> response, see

Acknowledge Marker

One-byte marker. Range 1h to 255h

The "acknowledge marker" n is placed in the command queue and when the execution of commands reaches the marker it is sent back to the host computer. This is an addition to the status commands that pass the queue and are answered immediately when received.

Example •

"Print data" <LF><ESC>p<ESC><ACK><1>

Wait for <1>

<RS><ESC><ACK><2>

Wait for <2>

The printer will send <1> when <print data> has executed and <2> when the ejecting has been performed.

Note •

You must wait for the acknowledge marker to return before sending any more data to the printer.

Note •

Acknowledge marker cannot be used for events that write to the flash PROM, for instance font loading. This is because the writing procedure erases the buffer, including the markers, and uses all RAM in the printer.


64 Programming

Font Loading

Font Loading

The printer can store 8 fonts in its flash PROM. The memory available for fonts is printed on the self-test printout. The character size is fixed

3

, so you must load one font file for each character size you require. The fonts are given font numbers when they are loaded into the printer. The first font is assigned number 0 and the next font 1 etc. up to font 7. Parameter p14

“Font Selection” will determine what font to use when no font selection command has been received (see

Default Parameter Settings on page 69 ).

You cannot erase a single font, but must erase font 4-7 with command <ESC>&D

,

or all eight fonts with <ESC>&C, then reload the fonts you wanted to keep.

Windows software for font generation and management is available on the Zebra web site. If you need to load fonts in a non-Windows environment, use the <ESC>&<NUL> command.

The time required for processing the font data that is loaded is typically 15–20 seconds per font, excluding transfer time. During this time, any data sent to the printer will be lost.

Note •

The font processing ends with a reset. The presenter motor runs momentarily to indicate that the printer is ready to be used.

Caution • Loading to the flash PROM will erase the RAM completely since the RAM is used during the loading process. Any print data residing in RAM will thus be lost.

File Format

A font consists of a header describing the font, then data for every character in the font. The header has to be downloaded even if the font consists of a single character only. Below is a description of the font header.

1 byte Reserved

1 byte Reserved

Should always be 0 (zero)

Should always be 0 (zero)

1 byte Char. width (X) The number of bytes required for the width of one character, usually 2 or 3. Range 1 to 8.

1 byte Character pitch The maximum width of one character in the set. This value is used for tab position calculation. Range 1 to 255.

1 byte Char. height (Y) The maximum height of one character matrix measured in pixels. This is also the minimum line spacing for this character set.

27 byte Font name String of characters used to identify the character set.

This will be printed on status printouts. (E.g. Swiss 10 cpi.)

Char_matrix table: 256 records, each containing 3 bytes.

3 byte Char_width (pixels) + Char_Ystart(pixels) + Char_Yheight(pixels)

The bitmap data consists of bitmap patterns for each character in a character set for which the parameter Char_width in the Char_matrix table is set to a value between 1 and 24. A character that has its Char_width set to zero, is not included in the bitmap data.

The bitmap for one character is then defined according to the following table:

Example • In this example, each row consists of 3 columns equal to 3 bytes.

(COL 0, ROW Ystart) , (COL 1, ROW Ystart) , (COL 2, ROW Ystart)

(COL 0, ROW Ystart+1) , (COL 1, ROW Ystart+1) , (COL 2, Ystart+1)

(COL 0, ROW Ystart+Yheight), (COL 1, ROW Ystart+Yheight ), (COL 2, ROW

In order to minimize the required storage space, only rows between Ystart and Ystart+Yheight are included in the character bitmap.


66 Programming

Logotypes

Logotypes

Up to 16 logotypes can be stored in the flash PROM of the printer. The logotypes can be positioned and printed out with commands <ESC>g or

< ESC>L

.

The exact number of logotypes and their sizes is determined by the total amount of memory used for fonts, logotypes and loaded firmware. Make a test printout to see how much memory is available.

Loading

Windows software that converts black and white BMP bitmap files to logotypes and load them into the printer is available on the Zebra web site. If you need to load logotypes in a non-

Windows environment, use the <ESC>&1 command.

The time required by the printer to process logotype data, excluding transfer time from the PC, is typically 15 to 20 seconds, per logotype. During this time, any data sent to the printer will be lost.

File Format

A header containing information about the logotype number, size and logotype name shall define each loaded logotype. Immediately after the header follows the actual bitmap of the logotype.

To print a logotype you can use two commands, <ESC>L<n>, prints the logotype at the current cursor position, just like any character. <ESC>g<n1><n2><n3><n4><n5> prints the logotype at a specified X-Y position. n1 n2n3 n4n5

One byte logotype number, (0—15)

Two byte X position measured in pixels from the left hand edge of the print window.

Two byte Y position in pixels from top of the page.

These bytes must always be inserted but they are ignored in variablepage-length mode where logotypes are always printed at the current Yposition.

Erasing

All logotypes are erased with the <ESC>&L command.

Caution • Loading to the flash PROM will erase the RAM completely since the RAM is used during the loading process. Any print data residing in RAM will thus be lost.


68 Programming

Status Reporting

Status Reporting

The printer is equipped with a number of sensors that report the printer status and various error conditions such as out-of-paper, previous printout not removed, etc.

A good practice in unattended printer applications is to check for errors and paper availability before printing.

1.

Send a Status Report Query (<ESC><ENQ><6>, see

page 59 ) and check that the answer

is "No errors"

2.

If an error is indicated, read out the error message with Status Request

(<ESC><ENQ><1>, page ), and take appropriate actions. Repeat this step until no more error code is available. If weekend sensor signals that paper is below this level, check again after next document is printed. If the sensor still signals a level below the weekend level after three successive print/check cycles, report the condition to the systems supervisor so that he can schedule a service visit to the printer. This three-cycle check is to ensure that dirt on the side of the roll does not cause the alarm.

3.

Send a paper-near-end query (<ESC><ENQ><2>, see page 57 ) to see if the sensor reports

low paper level.

4.

If paper-near-end is indicated, report the condition to the systems supervisor so that he can schedule a service visit to the printer.

5.

Print the printout.

Important • A status reply must be read! Sending a second status query without reading the reply of the first query may lock the printer.

Note • When using a multitask OS, status queries and responses may not be transferred immediately from your application to the printer and vice versa. So write your program in such a way that it repeats the query if it gets a timeout or an invalid reply. Good practice is to ask once every 2-3 seconds, five times before giving up.

Note •

You should construct your application in such a way so as not to request status while printing, as this can result in loss of data.


Programming

Default Parameter Settings

69

Default Parameter Settings

Some of the printer settings can be stored in the flash PROM so that they will be used also after power OFF.

The stored parameter settings are printed out on the self-test printout.

The number in front of the function is the parameter number (n) used when setting the parameter with the command <ESC>&P<n><v>.

You can use the parameter settings pretty much like normal commands. Either send the parameter values with each printout, or set them up once and then send <ESC>&<4> to store all settings in the flash PROM.

You can always return to factory default settings by sending <ESC>&<F>, and then storing those settings with <ESC>&<4>

.

Note • The parameters can be locked so that no changes are possible. Check parameter 53 on the self-test printout to find out.

Note •

If you try to set a parameter to an invalid value, the parameter will be set to the nearest valid value below.

87

Aligning Preprint And Thermal Print

The printer can synchronize the cutting of the printout with black-marks printed on the back of the paper. Use this function when you have preprint on the media and you don't want a cut in the middle of that preprint, or text printed on top of the preprint.

The sensor used to detect the black-marks is the same sensor as used for paper end detection. It is positioned 9 mm from the edge of the paper on the side of the blue

release arm, and 25 mm behind the cutter (as seen from the presenter [output] side of the printer). The sensor accuracy is about ±0.5 mm so avoid designing printouts with too high demands for synchronization.

88 Page Setup

Aligning Preprint And Thermal Print

Since the same sensor is used for both paper end and black-mark detection, the printer must know the length of the black-mark to avoid signaling end-of-paper when it detects a blackmark. The default setting accepts black-marks in the range 3 –16 mm, and works perfectly with the recommended black-mark length of 5 mm. Marks shorter than 3 mm are interpreted as dirt, and marks longer than 16 mm as out-of-paper. Change both these values by changing the printer default settings.

Black mark mode is selected by setting parameter 35 to 1, and storing the parameters.

Important • It is essential that you store the parameters in the printer for black mark synchronization even if you enable black marks in the Windows driver. This is because

Windows is not used at paper loading, and feeding with the Feed button on the printer.


Parameters Used

Parameter n35 Black Mark

Enables/disables black mark check.

Parameters n37 and n38 - Page Length Minimum

Page Setup

Parameters Used

89

10/05/2009

Measure the distance from the trailing edge of one black mark to the trailing edge of the next.

The resolution is 0.125 mm so multiply the distance by 8, then calculate the value to enter as n37 and n38.

Example • If the page length is 100mm, (100 x 8) / 256 = 3.125. n37 is the integer value, that is 3, while  n38 is the fraction, 0.125 x 256 = 32

Parameter n39 – Max Black Mark Length

Measure the height of the black mark. The resolution is 0.125 mm so multiply the black mark length (in millimeters) by 8 and enter the value as n39.

Parameter n40 – Min Black Mark Length (Garbage Filter)

This parameter is actually a filter to filter-out garbage on the paper. If a spot is smaller than this value, it will not be regarded as a black mark. 1. About ⅓ of the black mark length is usually a suitable setting.

Parameters Used

Garbage, Black Mark and Out of Paper Detection

Garbage range n40

Printed black mark n39

5 mm

Constant

Valid black mark range (n39 – n40 + 5mm)

Out of paper

For every step the paper is feed, the black mark sensor is sampled to detect garbage, black marks or out of paper.

When the printer detects blackness is has to check if it is only garbage;

If… the paper gets white again within n40 x

0.125 mm it is still black after n40 x 0.125 mmYes the paper gets white within an additional n39-n40 plus 5 mm

Then… it is garbage and the spot is ignored. it is probably a black mark.

it is a Blackmark

The 5-mm is a constant added to make sure that noise on the edge not will interfere with the samples. If it at this point still is still black we have detected out of paper.

Be careful about n40 and n39. If n39 – n40 is too small, then the minimum detection area will be too little. This area should not be less than 2 mm.


Page Setup

Parameters Used

91

Parameter n41 and n42 –Black Mark Cut Offset

After the black mark is detected (black to white change) the printer feeds another distance to place the paper in cut position. This distance cannot be negative so placing the black mark too close to the paper edge is better than too far away.

The actual cut position n41 & n42

Desired cut position

Black mark detected

(ESC x n1 n2 is an obsolete command that sets n41 and n42. It is implemented for backward compatibility with old drivers. Set parameters n41 and n42 with the 

ESC & P n1 n2 command instead.)

FF (Form Feed)

Use <FF> to print the buffer content, go to the next top of form (black mark), and cut the paper.

ESC Z (Go To Next Top of Form)

Use <ESC>Z to move the paper to the next top of form. This is practically a Form-Feed without printing and cut. It searches for the next black mark for maximum one page length + black mark length (256 x n37+n38 + n39)/8. An additional length of 20 mm is added to be sure to pass the edge of the next black mark. If there is no black mark within the set distance plus

20 mm, an error is raised.

Interface

The printer has one standard USB interface and an optional serial interface. There are no selections to be made, but only one interface can be used at a time. The printer will not function properly if data is received on more than one interface at a time.

Note •

If you use the printer through a Windows driver, you need not read the rest of this chapter.

Caution • Always use Zebra-approved interface cables to avoid excessive EMC interferences and potentially voiding the printer EMC certifications.


96 Interface

USB Interface

USB Interface

The USB (Universal Serial Bus) is an interface designed to handle peripherals daisy chained to a single connector. The transfer speed is up to 12 Mbits/s, which is quite adequate for the printer. Use this interface in operating systems with USB support, for instance Windows XP.

USB devices are Plug and Play compatible and hot swappable, which means that they can be connected and disconnected without turning off the power, or rebooting the computer.

Serial Option, TTP 7030

The printer has a 10-pin connector on the control board. This connector can be used to connect to an external RS-232 adapter. See

Connecting To The Computer on page 16 for installation

instructions.

The transfer speed of the serial interface can be set to between 2 400 and 115 200 bits/s.

This low transfer speed limits the printing speed. Printing full-width graphics with 115 200 bits/s result in printing speeds of about 24 mm/s for the 80-mm version of the printer, and

16 mm/s for the 112-mm version.

Applications where text-only printouts are to be printed are suitable for serial interface because of its easy to use bi-directional capability.

75–500 mm before partially ejecting printout. No upper limit for printout length. (112-500mm for Retract-and-retain versions of the printer)

Guillotine cutter

Stores the printout until it is fully printed and cut, then presents part of the printout to the customer. When the customer pulls the ticket, a sensor reacts on the pull and feeds out the full printout. Extremely long printouts can be partially ejected to limit loop buildup.

Programmable eject length. Full eject, or printout held until the customer removes it. Eject of uncollected printouts.

Optional retract and retain function pulls back uncollected printouts and throws them in a wastebasket inside the kiosk.

Automatic feed, cut, and eject when paper is detected.

Automatic "on-line" after successful paper load.

Automatic synchronization to Top-of-form marks when black-mark mode is selected in the parameter setup.

Optical sensors: Out of paper, paper left in presenter, paper pulled, paper near end (optional) and weekend level sensor

(optional).

Switch sensors: Cutter not in home position and print head lifted.

Preprinting

General

Print side

Punching must be done from outer side (thermal coating side) with a sharp perforation tool.

To endure the heat developed during printing, the preprint must meet the requirements applicable for preprinting on paper intended for laser printing. OCR-blind ink must be used for preprint on the inner side of the roll.

Ink used for preprinting on the thermal side must be nonabrasive.

The ink must not smear while wound up on the supply roll or during the printing process.

One side or both sides.

Print density

Inner side (opposite to thermal coating side)

25 mm before cutter, and 9.1 mm from left edge of ticket entry when seen from the front of the printer (on the side of the blue release arm).

3 to 18 mm, default 5 mm

Minimum 5 mm centered on the sensor position, recommended width is 9 mm

Standard wet offset mode is recommended for printing of the black-marks. The full mark area must be printed. Screenprinting is not allowed. Measurement of print density must be performed relative to the white paper background.

Using a MacBeth densitometer, the print density must be greater than 1.3. Anti-gloss filter is not allowed. Using a

Gretag densitometer, the print density must be greater than

1.5. The reflection from the black-mark must be less than

10%. The reflection from the paper must exceed 80%.

Preprinting

Punched holes

Preprinting in the zone passing over the black-mark sensor is not recommended. If required, OCR blind type of ink must be used, (outside the 700-1100 nm range).

Punching must be done from the thermally coated side. Distorted print can be expected within a zone of approximately 2-mm around the edges of the hole. The function must be tested.
