CCCHH Label Printer Templates

This repo contains some templates for the Brother QL-500 label printer.

Usage

The templates use typst (a LaTeX alternative) as typesetting engine. There are two versions:

  • label-wide: 60x35 mm for use with DK-22205 endless tape (DK-22205)
    • height could be adjusted, if needed, but keep in mind to change the paper size when printing
  • label-item: 38x90mm for use with DK-11208 pre-cut address labels

General Notes

  • Labels with CCCHH logo in the footer are meant for items owned by CCCHH.
  • The QL-500 does not have an automatic cutter, so it's recommended to only print one page at a time.
  • In order for typst to discover the font we use and bundle, you need to manually make typst aware of our fonts directory via e.g. the --font-path option.

Example Usage

To compile e.g. label-wide.typ, you can use the following command:

typst compile --font-path=./fonts label-wide.typ

Fonts Used

We're using and also bundling the Inter 4.0 font (see also the Inter Font Website). It was licensed under the SIL OPEN FONT LICENSE Version 1.1. A copy of the license can be found under: licenses/inter-4.0-font_OFL-1.1_license
