# Brother QL-600 Label Printer

### Brother QL-600 as a native system printer in macOS
Brother only offers to use their software to print labels via their P-Touch Editor ([macOS App Store](https://apps.apple.com/us/app/brother-p-touch-editor/id1453365242?mt=12)) without having to install the Brother as a system printer in System Preferences, which is fine for random regular labels. 

But sometimes you have the .pdf file with a shipping label that you want to print directly from Preview (CMD+P).

I have found this driver to work, albeit I have no clue where it they from, since I could not find it on Brother's website.

The hoops some jump through to print a simple shipping label are downright ridiculous and 100% not necessary:
