We have a single head Toyota ESP9100net, bought new, and connected up by the supplier.
We use wilcom & toyota expert stitch manager. via cat5 network cable
I have been trying to find another, but with no success.
There are older Toyotas about, but connect via USB, or floppy, and I don't know if they will talk with Expert stitch manager.
SO, - should I concider other brands?

Provided I look after the kit, is ther much difference?
Could I control different brand machines using wilcom from the same pC or am I inviting trouble?.

While I am fairly technical, embroidery is the biggest mystery to me, - fortunately my staff are great, I just don't want to give them trouble.
Any experience?
Thanks. Phil
