This does not seem to be related to brother_ql, which does not pin the Pillow package to an upper version, as this should not be required.

According to the log, pip seems to attempt to install Pillow from source as the wheel package (which is optional, but usually recommended) is missing from your system. To be able to do this, you have to meet the requirements from there, see https://pillow.readthedocs.io/en/stable/installation.html#building-from-source. Alternatively, after installing the wheel package you should be able to install the pre-built Pillow wheels for your system instead.
