You can use with the p-touch editor (free on apple store), if you want to print from others application, download last printer drivers from brothers site, the one for Catalina, then you can install it with the Brother QL-700 cups and now you can print virtually from everywhere.

ou did use the software update listed here identified for macOS 12?

https://support.brother.com/g/b/downloadlist.aspx?c=us_ot&lang=en&prod=lpql700eus&os=10071

That page also has software for update the printer's firmware. Is the firmware up to date?

Does the Printers and Scanner preference page see the the label printer?

Have you reset the printing system?

Could you please expand on your reply? I'm trying to install brother label printer QL-700 on Monterey. No success. There is no driver for this version, but the p-touch doesn't work if I cannot connect the printer. I installed driver for Catalana (as you recommended), but not sure what you mean by "install it with the Brother QL-700 cups"... what is that?

If I try to add a new printer, I cannot see any brother printers available.

Please help!
