Love this concept for the new Brother's Print Moda Studio. Question. Why are the rolls so expensive? There is only so much you print with just 5.4 yards at $100 each. Cotton fabric is so inexpensive to buy per yard, but Brother is charging $100 just for a tiny amount of yards, 5.4 yards -crazy. I hope to hear your feedback.
The brother website doesn't provide the technical specs of the machine. What information do you have about that? 01) Print resolutions in pixels 02) ink volume per color 03) print speed in color and black only mode based on print resolution and size 04) are the inks water based dyes or pigmented inks for longevity, waterproof, highly fade resistant? 05) What is the recommended drying time before the material should be handled in a crafting / manufacturing use? 06) Are there weird odors from the ink (Epson's DuraBright pigmented inks have a strange smell)? 07) How many times can a printed piece of fabric be run through the washing machine before wear & tear start to show? 08) Will the inks bleed into other clothing in the washing machine? 09) If so how long until that stops being a problem? 10) Are there special instructions for washing and drying? Some inkjet printed fabrics require you to turn the item inside out when washing and drying. In the dryer they also stipulate that it be set to a low or no heat setting and to remove it promptly from both types of machines. 11) How long will the printed fabrics remain vibrant and under what conditions are the best for longevity? 12) There was no mention of what the top tray is for, how is the USB port used on the front of the printer? 13) Can it be used to save projects to it or is it simply for loading files? 14) Can I use the printer as a standalone unit by adding an external video display or connection to a tablet for viewing and selecting larger files (without the Artsira software)? 15) I ask because the small screen on the printer itself will be barely useful in choosing files off the USB Flash Drive. 16) Can the USB port on the printer support a USB powered hard drive like a Western Digital MyPassport hard disk drive? 17) What is the maximum drive capacity that the printer supports from its USB Type A port? 18) What format should the USB drive be formatted for (FAT, FAT32, exFAT, NTFS, something else)? 19) Being an inkjet printer how often do you need to print to prevent clogged print heads or print lines? 20) How long can I go without printing? 21) When a clog does develop or broken lines start to appear in the prints what is the cleaning process? 22) Does the machine use the ink to "clean" itself? 23) Some inks have a certain shelf life before they "go bad"...does Brother inks have this problem? 24) Can I send my own designs to the printer from a Windows, Apple, Android computer without using wi-fi? I used to sell technology solutions to customers. Not that easy when the manufacturer refused to provide technical specs of their products.
How wide does it print. It doesn't look that wide. How much it runs and the cost of the ink is the big questions. Just like in sublimation, different printers require different inks and some are really expensive to buy.
That's cool. Looks expensive. I am a newbie. I have had my scanner for a year. I used it a hand of times, but I hate being behind . I have a SDx 125 . Is it silly to change to the 300 series?
Not excited yet because I still don't know what it does or what it's for. Can't wait for a demo video.
Congratulations! Looks like you’re going to have so much fun!!!!!

So excited to see how you actually use this machine on fabric.
Excited can’t wait to see you print on fabric.
Would love to see an actual demo and what a sample would look like. So many ideas with this printer. WOW
Lovinthebling you read our minds. We just put up a video using the PrintModa and showing a cool bag we made from the fabric.
I have mine and I’m so excited to use it ❤❤❤

What type of material can be printed on? Can it print on black fabric? Can one purchase aftermarket fabric?
OMG. This is so cool. Can I create my own design?? Wow. How much do I need to steal from the bank?
Looks awesome! Wonder how much it'll be/when it gets to the UK
How much does this run!!
It says retail is 1500 but on sale $999 on multiple sewing websites , I got mine on sewing machine plus with an extra ten percent off coupon
HOW MUCH???????

I see that it’s pre-order status. When will it be shipping?
Is there a manual?
Hi. Is the ink a PIGMENT type ink?
Very excited!
How do the sheets hold up in the wash?
Is it also a flatbed copier or scanner?
How much is a roll of fabric?
Why do we have to pay so much for the monthly plan to use their files?
$2500... Looks fantastic! Love the larger format... ? is the ink/colorfast/washable?
It’s actually $1000 right now! But sewing machine plus had a 10 percent coupon so I got it for $900
Allbrands has them for $999. And then coupon a few dollars off.
How much ❤❤
I was all excited when I heard about this till I saw that you have to use it with an app on an iPhone so it’s a no go for me.
But how much does it cost?
I'm buying this¿
I'm getting memory quilt vibes.
I only have two kidneys, is that enough to buy it?
Not really suitable for the average small home business is it? Just far too big.
That thing is way too big!
The roll of fabric is $100, 👎🏻
