Looping Presenter

Figure 2 • Looping Presenter

The TTP 2000 series printers feature a looping presenter mechanism with a built-in retract-and-retain function. The following illustrations provide an overview of the functionality of the various stages of printer operation.

• It handles documents of various lengths by

storing the printed paper in a loop.

• It holds the printout until fully printed and cut

before presenting the completed printout to the customer.

• A portion of the printout is presented. When

the customer takes the receipt, the printer detects the motion of the paper and issues the rest of the receipt.

• The retract-and-retain function can retract

uncollected printouts and drop them in a wastebasket inside the kiosk. Retracts are reported to the driver so any remaining data for that printout can be deleted.

Installing a Paper Guide

The TTP 2000 printers require a paper guide for proper operation. This paper guide allows the printer to be configured for use with 58, 60, 80, or 82.5 mm width media. The printer senses which paper guide is fitted and adjusts to it automatically. The TTP 2000 printers are delivered without paper guide fitted.

1. Select the paper guide you want to install.

Note • Evaluation kits contain all sizes of paper guide that are available. For regular

volume deliveries, the appropriate guide must be ordered separately. The printer will not operate properly without a guide.

2. Open the print head by pushing green print head lock plate towards the rear of the printer

and lifting up the print head, see Figure 22, Opening the Print head, on page 32.

Programming

There are two ways of generating a printout with the TTP 2000 printer: using the KPL Control Language or using a printer driver.

KPL Control Language

Printer Driver All TTP 2000 printers can print documents through a driver. When a Windows driver is

When operating in this mode, you have direct control over what the printer does using KPL command sequences. The printer has two operation modes you can choose from.

In variable page mode, the printer can act as a simple word processor, printing text that it receives. It can also print some types of barcodes and basic graphics in this mode. The selection of fonts and barcode types that are available are limited to what is stored in the flash PROM and the firmware of the printer. In this mode, information is printed in the same sequence as it is received.

In fixed page mode, you can place rotated text, barcodes, images, and ruled lines. This mode provides more flexibility than variable page mode, but is limited by available printer memory. Printout elements can be specified in any order. You instruct the printer when your layout is complete, and it is all printed at once.

Selection of the mode is controlled by the setting of parameter n36. (Refer to Document

Mode on page 89 for more information about parameter n36)

Use the Zebra Toolbox (available from zebra.com) to easily build text oriented designs.

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. When using a driver, printout is not limited by printer memory.

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.

Values

n1, n2, etc. represent values that you specify to control how the command behaves. These are different for each command and are explained in the text that follows each command description.

Examples

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

Where <ESC> means the escape character 27 (hexadecimal 1B). Numbers between less-than and greater-than characters, for example <1><19>, means 1 and 19 decimal. When the numbers indicate a hex value, a leading h and then a space is placed before the hex value (<h 1><h 13>).

Example • <65>, <h 41> and A are three different ways of expressing the character A.

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>.

In black mark mode it also determines if it should trigger on black marks or holes, then

measures the contrast of the mark and distance between marks, then sets parameters n37 -n40, n51, n57 bit 3, and n58 to suitable values for the analyzed ticket.

To make the calibration permanent, send <ESC>&<4>, store parameter values.

Note • If black mark calibrations fails, the printer will indicate error code 11 by blinking 11

times when you hold the Feed button pressed, and by answering NAK 11 to the status enquiry.

Go to Next Top of Form

In black mark mode,

an ESC Z starts looking for a black mark at the current position and

continues to search for the page length (as defined by n37 and n38) plus the mark height (as defined by n39) plus 10 mm. If no black mark is found, bit 3 in byte one in the ENQ 6 response is set to 1 and the printer will report NAK 10 on the next ENQ 1 or ENQ E query.

When black mark mode is disabled, ESC Z will perform a form feed.

Text and Logotype Orientation

Changes the orientation of text and logotypes.

n1 = 0 Gives portrait orientation

n1 = 1 Gives landscape orientation

n1 = 2 Gives upside down portrait orientation

n1 = 3 Gives upside down landscape orientation

Portrait and landscape or upside down portrait and upside down landscape can be mixed on the same printout. There are two cursors, one for portrait and one for landscape. The cursor always starts at the top left corner of the document. Looking at the paper when it exits the printer, the portrait cursor is at the top left corner of the printout, moving to the right as text is typed, while the landscape cursor is at the top right corner, moving downwards.

Note • The upside-down orientations (n1 = 2 and n1 = 3) were introduced in firmware version

3.27g. They can only be used with Fixed Document mode.

Align Text

Changes the alignment of text and logotypes printed with ESC L on the current line; on subsequent lines, it defaults back to Left align. The alignment can be changed multiple times per text line.

n1 = 0 Left

n1 = 1 Center

Select Font

This command selects one of the printer’s eight installed fonts. The font design depends on which fonts have been loaded into the printer’s flash PROM. Make a test printout to see which fonts are available in your printer.

n1 = 0 Normal font (font 0)

n1 = 1 Font 1

n1 = 2 Font 2

n1 = 3 Font 3

n1 = 4 Font 4

n1 = 5 Font 5

n1 = 6 Font 6

n1 = 7 Font 7

Note • For information on loading fonts, see Font Loading on page 71.

This command performs the same function as setting parameter n14, Font Selection. Refer to

Font Selection on page 86 for more information.

ESC B n1

1B 42 n1 Hex 27 66 n1 decimal

If a line of text is too long to be printed due to the font, position, print width, or any other factor, the text line will be automatically wrapped. If the wrapping occurs, any alignment command is canceled. Different fonts can be used on the same line.

Selecting an empty font location will set bit 4 of byte 1 in the ENQ 6 response to 1. The printer will also return a NAK 12 on the next ENQ 1 enquiry. This NAK 12 is a one-time error that will clear after read.

Note • If more than 379 characters are sent to the printer before an LF, the text buffer is

printed automatically. Each font or text style change consumes two bytes in this buffer. The text is formatted based on the formatting commands as they were received.

Bold

Bold command works best with normal character width. With higher widths, the effect of bold becomes less pronounced. The Bold command can be applied to single characters, words, or text lines.

Bold remains in effect until deactivated or until the printer is reset.

n1 = 0 Turns OFF bold (Normal)

n1 = 1 Turns ON bold

Underline

n1 = 0 Turns OFF underline

n1 = 1..7 Turns ON a 1–7 pixel thick underline

Characters, single words, or complete text lines can be underlined.

Text Height

This command scales the height of the text printed by a factor of up to 16x. The valid range of values is 0 to 15.

n1 = 0 Resets the character height to the base character height

n1 = 1...15 Increases the character height to 2...16 times the base character height.

In combination with variable character width (<ESC>w<n1>), give highly legible characters depending on the font to which the command has been applied.

Carriage Return

By default, carriage return is ignored.

Parameter n33 (CR/LF Behavior) can be changed so the printer interpretes <CR> as follows:

0A hex

• Interpret it as <CR>, returning the print position to beginning of line without line feed.

• Interpret <CR> as <CR><LF>, inserting line space as specified by the line spacing setting (see parameter n13), and returning the print position to beginning of the line.

See CR/LF Behavior on page 88.

Linefeed

Linefeed is interpreted as <CR><LF> by default. This inserts line spacing as specified by the line spacing setting (see parameter n13), and returns the print position to beginning of the line. <LF> also converts text from the text buffer to pixel lines and stores them in the line buffer, ready to be printed.

By changing the default settings, you can:

• Interpret <LF> as Linefeed. This inserts line space as specified by the line spacing setting (see parameter n13), without returning the print position to the beginning of the line.

• Ignore <LF>.

If an <LF> has not yet been sent to convert the text buffer to the line buffer, the lines printed by <ESC>d are copies of that line. Following this, the print position is returned to the beginning of the line.

Form Feed

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

In fixed document length mode (n36 = 0) this command prints data in the text buffer and feeds the paper to the top of next page.

In variable document length modem, <FF> advances to the minimum page length as specified by n37 and n38. If the printout already is longer than the minimum page length, <FF> does not feed any additional paper.

Cut and Eject

The paper is cut and ejected through the presenter module. The <RS> command automatically gives the eject length of 50 mm in addition to the amount specified by parameter n47.

If the printout length is less than the minimum page length (75 mm or the value specified by n37 and n38, whichever is greater), paper is fed until the minimum printout length is reached before execution of any cut command.

Note • The cut position is 9 mm after the print line. This makes the last 72 dot lines of the

previous page end up on the beginning of the next page. To have the printer position the cut after these dot lines, set parameter n49 = 1 (Advance before cut to automatic distance calculation). The auto advance function also adds an additional 16 dot lines (2 mm) of feed due to the width of the cutter blade.

If you prefer to set n49 to 0 (off), you can use a paper advance command to perform the same task:

This will position the cut 16 dot lines (2 mm) after the end of the print data.

Cut Only, No Eject

<ESC><RS> causes the paper to be cut but performs no eject operation.

Eject can be effected with the <ESC><FF>

on page 57).

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 less than the minimum page length (75 mm or the value specified by n37 and n38, whichever is greater), paper is fed until the minimum printout length is reached before execution of any cut command.

Also, refer to the note in <RS> concerning the cut position with regard to the print line.

Text to be printed<CR><LF> <ESC><RS> <ESC><FF><30>

will print “Text to be printed” and cut and then eject 30 mm.

Note • Use the Cut Only command if you want full control over the printer from your

system. When using <ESC><RS>, you must add commands to feed to the correct cut position (if n49 is not set to 1) and commands to eject the paper so that the customer can retrieve the printout.

Partial Cut (Unit Separate)

Prints a dotted line, a pair of scissors, and partially cuts the paper from both edges towards the center to make it easier to tear off the paper. This command causes all data in the image buffer to be printed and generates the printout of a fixed page when n36 = 0.

The length of the partial cut can be set with parameter n60. Refer to Partial Cut Length

on page 97 for more information.

Eject (Run Presenter)

<ESC><FF><n> ejects the document through the presenter module. Variable n represents the eject-length in millimeters. The setting of parameter n47 is always added to the value of n.

EM n

19 n1 Hex 25 n1 Decimal

The valid range for n is 1 to 127. The range 128-255 is reserved for future use.

Place this command after a cut command (<ESC><RS>) to partially eject the printout to the customer. Set the eject length so that the customer sees that the printout comes out of the kiosk wall. The pull detector gives motorized eject of the rest of the printout when the customer begins to pull the paper.

Note • The cut and eject command <RS>, automatically ejects 50 mm in addition to the

amount stored in parameter n47.

Enforced Clear Presenter

<EM><n> functions the same as <ENQ> but overrides the Retract and Retain parameter (n45) with another presenter behavior. The valid range of n is 0 to 255. Values of 0 - 99 cause the printer to eject the paper as with ENQ. Values of 100 - 255 cause paper retraction (refer to

Presenter Mode on page 92 for more information). The command will clear the presenter

immediately with printing synchronization.

Clear Presenter

<ENQ> clears the paper path of the presenter of printouts. This command completely ejects a

document that has not been removed during the print/cut/eject operation. Parameter n45

controls the behavior of this command (refer to Presenter Mode on page 92 for more

information). If n45 is 0 - 99 or 201 - 255, this command causes a full eject of the media. If n45 is 100 - 199, it causes a full retraction of the media. For example, to eject a document not removed during the previous print/cut/eject operation. Parameter No. 45 controls how the presenter is cleared.

Presenter Loop ON/ OFF/ Max Length

<ESC>f<n> is used to limit the height of the loop formed in the presenter module during printing. If your kiosk design does not have space above the printer to store the loop, it may be desirable to change the height of the loop that forms, or disable it entirely. When the maximum loop length is reached, the printer will begin presenting the media while continuing to maintain the selected loop length.

n specifies distance that the loop will extend upwards from the printer in centimeters. For example, if you specify a value of 5, the loop will not be allowed to exceed 5cm from the top of the printer. A value of 0 disables the looping action of the presenter and media is fed out directly.

Using this command has the exact same effect as setting paramter n9. Refer to Presenter Loop

Length on page 86 for more information.

Important • This command is obsolete and may disappear from future firmware releases. It

is recommended that you use parameter n9 instead of this command to set the loop length..

Load Font

<ESC>&<0> is used to load a font to the printer flash PROM. The font is placed in the first free position. The printer indicates that storage is complete by operating the presenter motor for a short period of time. The font position is determined by the order that the fonts are loaded into the printer.

A kiosk printer font file consists of a header containing data describing the font as well as data for each individual character in the font.

Fonts can be designed with the FastFont application included with Toolbox and can be loaded or deleted using the Toolbox application. The fonts loaded are not used by the Windows driver, so it is not necessary to load fonts into the printer to use the Windows driver.

For complete specification of the font format, refer to Font Loading on page 71.

Note • The available font memory is printed on the self-test printout. A maximum of 8 fonts

may be loaded (numbered 0 to 7). If you attempt to load a font that is larger than available memory or attempt to load more than 8 fonts, the font loading command will not load the font.

Load Firmware

This command should be used when you integrate firmware loading into your kiosk program. After transmitting this command, send the firmware binary file. If the firmware is the proper version for the printer and the firmware checksum is valid, the firmware is then programmed into the printer's flash memory. This process can take up to 60 seconds and the printer will reset when the process is complete.

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, 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 Print Setup on page 85).

Note • Multiple height and width commands can be used on all fonts.

Programming

Font Loading

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.

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.

This will be printed on status printouts. (For example, Swiss 10 cpi.)

1 byte Reserved 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 field can also contain the name of the code page the font is generated with. This is done with NUL separator between the font name and the code page name. Then, the entire field should be padded with NUL up to 27 bytes.

Example:

Programming

Font Loading

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

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

Logotypes

Loading

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.

Note • Logotype No. 0 is printed in the top of the self test printout, so this can be used to

customize the self test printout.

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 nonWindows 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.

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.

Header

Byte 0 Logotype number used to identify the logotype when printing.

Byte 1 X size measured in bytes.

Byte 2 Y size measured in pixels.

Byte 3—15 A logotype name that will be printed on test printouts.

Logotypes

The bitmap must have exactly (X size * Y size) number of bytes. 1=black, 0=white dot.

Bit No. 7 in byte 0 represents the top left corner 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.

Erasing

n1 One byte logotype number, (0—15)

n2n3 Two byte X position measured in pixels from the left hand edge of the print window.

n4n5 Two byte Y position in pixels from top of the page.

These bytes must always be inserted but they are ignored in variable-page-length mode where logotypes are always printed at the current Y-position.

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 be lost.

Status Reporting

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

Figure 28 • Sensor Placement in the Printer

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 Status Report on page 66) and check

that the answer is "No errors"

2. If “Status codes available” is indicated, read out the status message with Status Request

(<ESC><ENQ><1>, see Status Enquiry on page 62), and take appropriate actions.

3. Send a paper-near-end query (<ESC><ENQ><2>, see Paper-near-end Enquiry

on page 63) 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.

P1002902-002 TTP 2000 Technical Manual 09/14/2009

Programming

Status Reporting

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 ten 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.

Default Parameter Settings

Some of the printer settings can be stored in an EEPROM 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 EEPROM.

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.

Paper length, top, and bottom margins are in pixel lines. Paper width is in bytes or mm. (1 byte = 1 mm.)

Example •

If Free RAM on a TTP 2000 is 114627 bytes, print width is 80 mm = 80 bytes, top margin is 20 mm, and bottom margin 10 mm (20 x 8 =160 and 10 x 8 = 80 pixel lines):

Cut Position Calibration

Calibrates the cut position. The value is a signed byte.

A change of 1 moves the cut 1/8 of a mm more than normal. A change of –1 moves the cut 1/8 of a mm less than normal. -1 is entered as 256-1=255

The positive range is 1-127. The negative range is 128-255.

This parameter can be individually set for each printer and is not affected by the driver or reset commands. It is used to compensate for differences in sensor position in production. After moving or replacing the TOF-sensor, the calibration may have to be done again.

<ESC>&P<46><0> The cut is placed at the center of the sensor’s image of the

0Default 0 Min

Note • The cut is not 100% repetitive because the paper may be closer to the sensor for one

ticket than it is for the next. So do not expect a perfect synchronization between perforation and cut.

It is better to cut slightly after a perforation than before because cutting before perforation leaves a flap that is pushed through the printer and that may cause paper jam.

Wall Compensation (mm)

DRV

When the printout is printed and cut, the presenter ejects 50 mm of the page so that the customer can take it. If the kiosk wall is thick, or if you just want a longer part of the printout to be visible, this parameter adds extra eject length.

<ESC>&P<47><50> Adds 50 mm extra eject = 100 mm in total.

This will control the highest status code that is reported by <ESC><ENQ><6> and <ESC><ENQ><1> (Pending-status-code bit). You use this if your kiosk software is not written so it masks away unknown status messages.

Example •

If you want the TTP 2000 to be compatible with software written for TTP 1020, set parameter 56 to 6h and error codes 7 and up will not be reported.

System

The system parameter will control up to eight system components in the printer.

The bits specified so far are these:

Bit 0 Clear presenter at reset

Bit 1 Pull detector

Bit 2 Horizontal

Bit 3 Standard BM

Note • This parameter is set automatically when you run the

“Calibrating the TOF sensor procedure” (manually or using ESC #).

Bit 4 Disable USB reconnect

Note • If reconnect is enabled, the PC will not be able to go to sleep

mode.

Setting a bit to 1 enables the function and setting it to 0 disables it.

Important • If the function of a bit is not specified, it must always be set to 1.

Example •

pull detector is disabled <ESC>&P<57><251> The printer is set to vertical mode, that is the retract output and the

normal output are swapped. <ESC>&P<57><239> The printer will monitor USB heartbeat (SOF tokens), and thus try

to reconnect if they disappear. <ESC>&P<57><255> The printer is reset to normal behavior

Out-of-Paper Level

Sets the level at which the TOF sensor detects out of paper. The out-of-paper level may differ from the black-mark level on label stock where the foil opacity indicates top of form.

This parameter is set automatically when you run the “Calibrating the TOF sensor procedure” (manually or using ESC #).

USB Vendor Class

Switches identity of the device from Printer Class (7 hex) to Vendor Class (FF hex).

Use this parameter to communicate with a USB printer in Linux without installing a driver.

Note • After switching into Vendor Class, you must reconnect the USB cable.

The vendor class parameter is normally 0, which sets the TTP2030 to be a Printer Class device. If you set it to 1, the TTP 2030 will be a Vendor Class device, which means it will not require a driver but will appear as a file in Linux. You can then communicate with the printer by writing data to or reading from that file.

Caution • When not set to “Printer Class”, no programs that rely on the Windows printer

driver will be able to communicate with the printer, and thus not be able to reset the parameter to Printer Class again.

10 Default

1 Min

40 Max

To reset the printer back to Printer Class:

1. Power OFF the printer.

2. Disconnect the USB cable.

3. Open the print head and remove any paper.

4. Leave the print head open, press and hold the Feed button, and power ON the printer.

5. Connect the USB cable.

6. Save parameter settings using <ESC>&<4>.

Partial Cut Length

Sets the length of the partial cuts in mm from the edges of the paper (the blade cuts from the paper edges towards the middle).

The paper width parameter n48 is used to specify the edges of the paper so the printer knows where to start to cut. If parameter n48 is set to auto width, the guide fitted to the printer determines the print width and thus also the start position for the partial cut.

Caution • A too large partial cut may cause problems with the presenter, so stay with the

default setting if possible.
