Migrated from Windows to Linux leaving a Brother P-Touch label printer behind? Your printer may still be useful and work in Linux despite no mfg Linux support.
My decade-old Brother PT-2700 working on Gentoo Linux with both the command-line ptouch-print utility and the graphical ptouch-rs [Rust] application. I also built ptouch-rs successfully on a Raspberry Pi 4 running Raspberry Pi OS "Trixie.".
