Ive been wanting a sawgrass for quite some time now ,I always knew it was a l adding printer but had no idea it came with so many extra functions .. IMPRESSED !! Seriously impressed . Now to track one down in Australia that doesn't need a 2nd mortgage 😆
Finally buying a sawgrass your video convinced my hubby , there was a little persistence in repeating video all day 😆 A3 sawgrass in Australia are 3k so back to an A4 at least I'm finally getting my hands on a SAWGRASS
Is Design Mate the same as Creative Studio? I do not see anywhere on Sawgrass how to get Creative Studio. Please let me know as it gets confusing. Thank You!
Sorry. I should have specified I was using Forever Flex. But Creative Studio wouldn’t know that. I use to be able to see it in Go Products. I’m assuming they’re not going to launch the Go Network?
Love your video. I have a printing question. You said you can design and the save or share in CS. Can I save it as a png and use it somewhere else..say Silhouette and print it to another printer? I know you can not print to another printer other than Sawgrass directly. Kind of looking for a work around so I can use the template software in CS only.. Thanks!
Thank you for this video. I am curious if Creative Studio or Design Space with Cricut has more functionality and designs to choose from. I've watched your other videos, but do you do a comparison?
For sublimation, Creative Studio probably has more applicable designs. Design Space is not for sublimation technically so designs are made more for cutting.
Hi I am starting a business wit speaker and tumblers they are 20 oz tumblers and we print wit the sawgrass 5g500. Do you know the measurement sizes of the speaker tumbler and straight tumblers for the sawgrass 5g500 full wrap so I can be prepared ? Thank u
I have a Sawgrass Printer...when ready to print after it is put in the queue...do you have to click on Print Manager in order to get that to pop up? I have to all the time and it seems that I should not have to??
I love your videos. Are you going to do any more on the Epson F170. I've noticed a few on Sawgrass but only one for F170. I will one day get the bigger one since I have such great luck with mine. After a year and letting it sit for months on end. I've never had a problem printing or it needing cleaned constantly. My dealer says the humidity is the biggest enemy on these types of printers. Again, thank you for all of your videos. They help so much
The main F170 video covers everything you need to know about that printer. That being said I have USED it in many many videos making things! I will be doing some comparisons between printers however.
@@dkquick72 I've seen a couple of comparison's. One was from a good company. F170 won that one, not only in the cost of buying and upkeep expenses but also in printing. I have good luck with mine. Enough that if I ever upgrade to a bigger one, I'll go with the Epson 540. I haven't been doing this very long so I learn so much from those that have. I had great results doing glow in the dark tumblers for Halloween. I do wish it would have software like the 540 does though. I don't do so well with Cricut and the others. I can bring things into SNC and edit them but then I have to snip it, you can't print from it. But hopefully that'll be changing at the end of the month. What printer do you have.
@@judyromano2229 Thanks for the info. I searched for comparisons videos, but didn’t see anything that convinced me either way, hence asking Angie to do her amazing thing! 😀 I don’t have a sublimation printer yet, but been doing research before taking the plunge. I’ve just been using infusible ink for my sublimation projects so far. Thanks again for the feedback.
Hi Angie, I am just learning sawgrass creative studio, I would like to use a font I had downloaded but it looks like I need to buy the premium subscription to use my own fonts, is that correct? I would prefer to not upgrade but I have fonts that I have used for years and really like. I appreciate all your videos, they have really helped me.
I have the premium version so I can't tell from where I am looking. If that is true, can you design in another program and just use your Sawgrass to print?
Angie maybe you can help, I have designs something and after a while it says inactivity and I have to log in again and I lose my design, and it will not let me save, is there a way to retrieve it. so frustrating. Thank you
In creative studio i can not seem to get more then 1 project on the. paper is thst possible to keep adding different projects to the same piece of paper? I hate wasting the paper..
Yep you can do that. I would design the second in Creative Studio, download it, and use the jobs tab to put it on the same sheet. I do an example in the Print Manger video!
@AngieHolden haha seriously, my bad. I'm actually after sawgrass as I'm getting white hair cos of the sublimation. I do it as a side of my embroidery for 6 years and couldn't get the right colours, not even similar. I've recently got Hiippo but colours are rubbish. I don't need super bright or strong colours, I just need exactly (or nearly) what I can see on my display (at least one of them as I understand different companies produce different monitors). Do you think sawgrass gives you what you have in the software? I use Corel 2023 and affinity. Thank you Angie for reply, I will look carefully next time. I just noticed not many people compare already made product with what they see on the screen🤷♀️
Screen colors vary widely. You would have to get a specific monitor and calibrate the monitor first of all. Second you will have some differences as the display colors are different from print colors always.
Yes I know that but somehow I'm always happy with my epson printers or brother,just not sublimation. I do understand colours may be different but I'm looking for at least something similar. Hiippo is known for not doing grey scale. Also on the pantone video you did, Hiipo is vivid and bright but missing so many shades. Personally I think the top pantone( I think it was epson original) gives you the most variations, hiipo + colour profile gives very similar tones. Very disappointed with that ink.
Wow! I've been searching for some more information like how to use Creative Studio. Thank you very much Angie! Now I can put in the work. 💜
Happy to help!
That's pretty neat! There are a lot of really cool options in that program.
Ive been wanting a sawgrass for quite some time now ,I always knew it was a l adding printer but had no idea it came with so many extra functions ..
IMPRESSED !! Seriously impressed . Now to track one down in Australia that doesn't need a 2nd mortgage 😆
I have been really impressed actually! It makes the process so much simpler!
Finally buying a sawgrass your video convinced my hubby , there was a little persistence in repeating video all day 😆 A3 sawgrass in Australia are 3k so back to an A4 at least I'm finally getting my hands on a SAWGRASS
Very helpful, Angie. thanks
Glad it was helpful!
Is Design Mate the same as Creative Studio? I do not see anywhere on Sawgrass how to get Creative Studio. Please let me know as it gets confusing. Thank You!
I just got an email that they are eliminating Creative Studio and moving everything to their new Design Mate program.
Is there a way to delete items in my gallery? I haven't been able to find any information on doing this, Thank you. I love your videos!!!
Hmmm...I have not tried so I am not sure!
Can you use larger than 8 1/2 x 11 paper with your Sawgrass? Love your videos, you have really helped me a lot. Thank you 😊
Yep. See this video: th-cam.com/video/2F5AboQVDiE/w-d-xo.html
Wow! I use inkscape with an epsom printer. How hard is it to go from inkscape to saw grass design studio? I also use a mac. Help please
Inkscape has way more features. You can still design in inkscape and just print on your sawgrass.
Hi Angie! Question: How do I change the color of the products? For example, what if I want to see what a black hoodie would look like with my design?
Sublimation is translucent which means the color of the blank shows through. Something like a black hoodie will not work.
Sorry. I should have specified I was using Forever Flex. But Creative Studio wouldn’t know that. I use to be able to see it in Go Products. I’m assuming they’re not going to launch the Go Network?

@Angie Holden Thanks. I just don't see very many designs on Creative Studio, so I must not understand how to access them.
Hi I am starting a business wit speaker and tumblers they are 20 oz tumblers and we print wit the sawgrass 5g500. Do you know the measurement sizes of the speaker tumbler and straight tumblers for the sawgrass 5g500 full wrap so I can be prepared ? Thank u
I would get the measurements from where you are purchasing the tumblers. Every supplier is different.
Hi, Could you please advise how i can delete some of the designs i uploaded to "my design" please
I am not sure if there is a way frankly.
I have a Sawgrass Printer...when ready to print after it is put in the queue...do you have to click on Print Manager in order to get that to pop up? I have to all the time and it seems that I should not have to??
I did have to do that sometimes with this version. I have changed to print mate for my sawgrass.
@@AngieHolden I will just continue as I have. I am not quite sure how to change it to print mate. Thank you.
How do you make something in Creative Studio and then use your cricut to cut it. Thanks for your help.
I have an EasySubli video coming up. I will see if I can include an answer to that in that video!
Do you know what happened with the Go Products and the Network? It looked awesome and then disappeared but still shows up in their training videos.
Sorry I do not.

@@AngieHolden have you tried the easy subli on it yet. I'm going to do it this weekend.

Where can I find a user manual for Creative Studio?
I don't think there is a printable version.
Hi Angie, I am just learning sawgrass creative studio, I would like to use a font I had downloaded but it looks like I need to buy the premium subscription to use my own fonts, is that correct? I would prefer to not upgrade but I have fonts that I have used for years and really like. I appreciate all your videos, they have really helped me.
I have the premium version so I can't tell from where I am looking. If that is true, can you design in another program and just use your Sawgrass to print?
@Angie Holden I did try that and it still will not allow me too. I might have to just get the premium. Thanks for all your info!!
This seems to be no longer working for me at all. What do you think is now going on with Creative Studio?
They are getting rid of Creative Studio instead using Design Mate and Print Mate.
How do I get a design from Cricut Design Space to the Sawgrass Creative program?
You can't export designs. You can print using your Sawgrass Print Manager.
What is the setting when you print ?
For Sawgrass, use the material as the setting. So choose the material you will press to.
Angie maybe you can help, I have designs something and after a while it says inactivity and I have to log in again and I lose my design, and it will not let me save, is there a way to retrieve it. so frustrating. Thank you
That is frustrating! I assume a custom canvas? Can you find a canvas they have that is close?
Can you print on an Epson or just on Sawgrass printer?
This is only for Sawgrass printers. Try this for Epson: th-cam.com/video/kfmzrLncghk/w-d-xo.html
30percent off Pop up keeps me from designing how do I get rid of it
In creative studio i can not seem to get more then 1 project on the. paper is thst possible to keep adding different projects to the same piece of paper? I hate wasting the paper..
Did you try under the job tab?
Yep you can do that. I would design the second in Creative Studio, download it, and use the jobs tab to put it on the same sheet. I do an example in the Print Manger video!
@@AngieHolden Thank you
When I download my finished image, then open file it has creative studio watermark across all of it. Why is that?
Probably because you used the CS images.
@Angie Holden I used my own images. I just wanted to keep them as my backup not on their website.
Why when I use Creative studio to design, do i get watermarks after I download it please?
Maybe you didn't purchase the images or do not subscribe?
@Angie Holden I can use the same images in Canva and they print fine. No watermarks.
Is it free with the printer or is it a subscription?
Free with printer!
A custom canvas can’t be saved??
You can't save the canvas SIZE. You can save the design.
@@AngieHolden oh I see. Thank you!
Hi my sawgrass studio can’t stop loading
Maybe try rebooting.
I luv my sawgrass500 easy to use but the inks are not cheap HAPPY Crafting
The ink is NOT cheap! But it does go a REALLY long way!
Can you bring in your own images?
Yes I show how to do that.
Angie, you have lovely videos but never show the already made products.
I have literally 100s of videos of me making things. The videos like this one are only meant to show you the software.
@AngieHolden haha seriously, my bad. I'm actually after sawgrass as I'm getting white hair cos of the sublimation.
