[LUNA] Printing to Brother QL-710W label printer with Linux

[John Price]

Thanks for the ideas.  I'm using the official drivers from Brother and the
firmware is the latest already (1.15).  I''ll see what I can do about
making the logs more verbose, but right now there is nothing that helps in
there.

Thanks,
John
