I would like to share my situation regarding my label printing setup and the gaps I am experiencing to understand if there are issues or if my setup needs adjustments.
I have two Brother label printers: QL-820NWB and PTZ. The QL supports 65mm labels, which I use mainly for printing location labels to apply on boxes, shelves, and other types of locations. The PT-P750W supports up to 24mm labels, but I am using classic 12mm labels for Gridfinity bins.
I have installed the Brother plugin, and it appears to be installed and active, but it is not listed when I attempt to print something. I have configured the QL as a machine, and it works, but the server reports an error with each print (although the label is printed). I tried to add the PT as a second machine, but there is no way to add the network configuration.
I also attempted to create a custom label printer to print 12mm labels, but without a working printer configuration, I don't want to invest too much time.
Is what I am trying to achieve too challenging with the current InvenTree capabilities, or do I have issues with my setup? For example, why is the Brother printer not listed anymore (it was in the previous version)? Can the Brother driver support two printers? Is there a compatibility list of the Brother-supported printers?
