Yesterday I discovered that if I download the design as a DST file, the file name shows on the screen. PES is the Brother format and PES shows as a picture. Since the screen is only black and white, the pictures are sometimes useless. I've been running the machine almost daily and using a variety of unknown brand threads - not a single problem

Tks for the info but most U.S. dealers will not ship to Canada. I think I am left with trying to find one here in Canada.
I have heard nothing but good things about the Brother make but of course, there is room for a lemon, one never knows for sure. Tks for your help though.
