Research direction

Start by reproducing the USB Brother QL-700 workflow described in the issue, focusing on device.open followed by printing text. Compare the printer's behavior with the library's error state; done means the printer produces output or a clear error is reported.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

I am having a brother ql 700 printer that is connected over USB
and the lib is able to detect the printer but when I do device.open and print text or whatever nothing happens
and error stays null
Is there anyone that had more luck with this kind of label printers?
