scenario: you have a windows vm failing to boot with INACCESSIBLE_BOOT_DEVICE and changing the disk type to ide or something else causes another bsod. how to you get it to boot up again without a physical machine?

download the stable virtio drivers from here, in iso form: https://fedorapeople.org/groups/virt/virtio-win/direct-downloads/stable-virtio/virtio-win.iso

add the iso to your qemu/virt manager config as a cd/dvd drive

windows should send you to the recovery mode screen, but if it doesn't you might have to run a windows install iso to get to it.

Controlling the Brother P-Touch Cube label maker from a computer

The Brother PTP300BT label maker is intended to be controlled using the official Brother P-Touch Design & Print iOS/Android app. The app has arbitrary limits on what you can print (1 text object and up to 3 preset icons), so I thought it would be a fun challenge to reverse engineer the protocol to print whatever I wanted.

Python code at the bottom if you want to skip the fine details.

Process

Intitially I had a quick peek at the Android APK to see if there was any useful information inside. The code that handles the communication with the printer in Print&Design turned out to be a native library, but the app clearly prepares a bitmap image and passes it to this native library for printing. Bitmaps are definitely something we can work with.
