How to install Brother QL-700 printer on Mac for use with Chrome?

I have a Brother printer QL-700, and don´t find the drivers for mac (Sequoia 15.7.2). If I go to the official Brother site they say that there is not a specific driver for the printer, that I have to install the App Brother P Touch Editor (if I use this app the printer is ok). But I need ti use the printer from Chrome and I need to see the printer in the printers list. If I try to install this printer the system ask me to use a software that I am not able to find. I need help. Thank you

Brother Support – QL-700

I do not see any indication that Brother has supplied print drivers for macOS Sequoia, or that this label printer has support for AirPrint. The manual refers to old versions of Mac OS X and says that it is only compatible with those versions when you use P-touch Editor 5.x. No mention of AirPrint that I could see on the Brother site.

The "Search for AirPrint-enabled Printers" tool at About AirPrint - Apple Support does not seem to list the Brother QL-700.

I'm afraid that Brother doesn't offer the feature (using the printer from Chrome – or from anything other than their own special label printing application) that you are looking for.

I don't use that printer but I have not used a printer that ever rejected use from particular browser software. I print to a different Brother printer all the time from Firefox or pretty much all other applications on my computer.
