Which Brother printer setting controls the name shown in Planning Center Check-Ins?

Verified answer · Added April 24, 2026

Answer

The displayed name comes from AirPrint > Advanced Settings > Location, not Printer Name or the mDNS Service Name. The printer appears as 'Brother QL-820NWB - [Location field value]'; testing confirmed the model prefix cannot be changed.
