GNU Linux Debian 11 - How to setup Brother QL 600 LabelPrinter

it’s a two part process:

1. install the drivers

(thanks all involved great work 🙂

<span style="color: #00ffff;">su - root
apt update
apt install printer-driver-ptouch
</span>

2. install the printer via cups web browser interface

http://localhost:631/

or:

https://localhost:631/

-> Administration -> Add Printer

select the driver for QL-650TD

click on “Add Printer”

stick with the default options.

3. (optional but recommended) get some templates for LibreOffice:

4. HAPPY LABELING 🙂
