Hardware • Re: Can't get Brother QL1110NWB Label Printer to function

The device seems to support AirPrint for connections (driverless).
AirPrint driver and CUPS driver compatibility

The QL1100 uses the CUPS driver for the USB connection. It is not AirPrint compatible.

The QL1110NWB uses the AirPrint driver for USB, wired, wireless, and Bluetooth connections on a Macintosh computer. A CUPS driver is not available. AirPrint is supported on iOS on Apple mobile devices.

Note The AirPrint driver is not the same as the AirPrint connection protocol that allows for driverless communication from an Apple device to a Brother machine. To use the AirPrint connection protocol, your machine must be connected using a Wired Network or Wireless Network connection. A Bluetooth connection is not supported in conjunction with the AirPrint connection protocol.

The USB connection will not work with drivers from Brother.
Note that IPP-over-USB reserves the USB interface connection with the printer/scanner exclusively for itself and communication with a printer/scanner device by software that does not operate using the IPP-over-USB protocol becomes impossible while ipp-usb is running. This is a consequence of the design of USB communication. It is not a bug in ipp-usb.

Debian does AirPrint (driverless) too, so you should try to set up a driverless connection via USB first.

It is possible to disable IPP-over-USB and use the Brother drivers with a USB connection, but use of drivers is now deprecated. If driverless works, use that. At some point CUPS will stop supporting drivers, so better to be future proof.
