Opportunity is missed by most people because it is dressed in overalls and looks like work. - Thomas Edison
I will say the brother folks did get us confident on the machine before they left. It's a pretty brainless thing to operate...the hard part is getting the PT right.I didn't like the settings the tech recommended. I can print faster with the same vividness printing 600 dpi.Brandt should be good to go, but I would play around for a week or two before selling any white ink jobs just to get comfortable.

I have seen vast differences between sources I've tried over the years, and even a little inconsistency from folks who "have it down". I just don't believe that it as "pushbutton instant automatic" as it's sold as, and the value of operator experience should not be underestimated, Brother (or any other) training notwithstanding.

See us at the Longbeach show and bring a stick with files on it. I doubt anyone else will be as simple to print as ours without manipulation. Ours is 99.9% point and shoot for excellent results even on black. Ask Brandt in a couple of weeks.
is anybody making any aftermarket pretreats for the Kornit?

No poly at all.What they have produced is such a mess.Yes and no need for them to be so "sehr geizig", they charge for sample runs of 4 pcs around $45 per shirt.Most likely it's printshop lack of:-knowledge,-or readiness to test settings for your shirts, if new to them-or having poor drying tunnel-or being too "geizig" because white costs about 1,00$ per properly executed print like this.Or combination of above reasons. We don't print that crapy, even on cheap blends. We spend more ink, even loose money sometimes, but this shouldn't leeave shop. It's not Kornit, it's operaters.
