1. Any transferred lace (with eyelets) will need to be hand manipulated (only standard gauge machines have lace carriages)
   
   
2. The only reason to program a lace pattern would be to have the machine select the needles that you need to hand manipulate. Because you have a Brother machine, it pre-select needles, making it easier to identify which needles need to be transferred.
   
   
3. We have an entire Classroom "Lace on the Knitting Machine".  There are lots of tutorials on the subject that will help you
   
   
4. K2tog is basically transferring 1 stitch to it's neighbor, leaving the emptied needle in work. This creates an eyelet similar to a yo (yarn over) in hand knitting (there is a section on this subject in the Lace Classroom)
   
   
5. p1 would be purl 1 and would need to be hand manipulated, or re-formed
