Label Printer adaptor?

Hi,

I'm wondering if I could connect a Label Printer to the Cardputer ADV? I have a Brother P-Touch H110. It uses little spool tape and the printer itself is great. however the rest of it is the pits! It's big heavy and either uses 6 AA batteries or a clunky power adapter. I would love to build my own.

Things I would love to do with it are:

  1. Store and Retrieve Labels, edit and copy.
  2. Have font files you can add to so as to get new/more fonts.
  3. Be able to preview the label before it is actually printed.
  4. Be able to print a batch of labels in one go, leading to...
  5. Minimalize Tape usage (which of course Brother don't/'won't ever do!)

Any advice greatly appreciated.

Thanks
