Python package for the raster language protocol of the Brother QL series label printers (QL-500, QL-550, QL-560, QL-570, QL-700, QL-710W, QL-720NW, QL-800, QL-810W, QL-820NWB, QL-1050, QL-1060N and more).
The error message when the --label flag is forgotten is cryptic. It is not easy to see what went wrong, or even if it was a bug or your own fault.
Here is what I get:
