Hmmm interesting. I'll have to mention this to my friend who bought the printer - she also has a 10-needle. I wonder how, specifically, they intend to use the printer to help with the embroidery.

I think the supplies she was talking about was the roll of fabric.

That statement would make me hesitant to buy from him. It sounds like he just wants the money for selling it and then you're on your own. Not really great dealer support.

i think the main feature is the ease of importing images and fabric to replicate. It uses the new app Artspira that machine embroiders use. The new embroidery machines are specialized computers that sew. It is the way art sewing is headed.
