@MatthewMcHenry to print badges to a Brother QL-820NWB from an iPad kiosk, you’ll set the printer up as a local printer on the device (it’s configured via device properties, not Bluetooth).

Set these two device properties:

  • device.printer.type = brother (or generic)
  • device.printer.options = {"printer":"ipp://<printer-ip>/ipp/print"} (replace <printer-ip> with the printer’s IP address)

Example (lab config): {"model":"QL_820NWB","modelName":"Brother QL-820NWB","ipAddress":"172.20.15.151","paperLabelName":"W62"}

Once configured, the kiosk will show Print Badge at the end of check-in and print to that printer.
