Publishing to the Apple Store #
When submitting your application to the Apple store you'll need to obtain a PPID from Brother. This can be achieved by making a request here: https://secure6.brother.co.jp/mfi/Top.aspx
Without it you'll likely receive a rejection message along the lines of:
App has not been authorized by the accessory manufacturer to work with the MFi accessory

Brother Hackathon #
Feel free to use any of my GitHub repositories in your apps. You should also consider
attending the free Brother Hackathon happening this year. You get a free Brother QL-1110NWB,
a PT-P910BT, and possibly an awesome DS-940DW mobile scanner. Visit brotherhackathon.com for
more information. I will be teaching workshops, and they are free. You can ask me any questions.
Thank you.
