Product Overview
The Roland VersaSTUDIO BN2-20 combines professional-grade eco-solvent printing and precision contour cutting in a compact desktop platform designed for entrepreneurs, apparel decorators, sign shops, schools, makerspaces, and growing graphics businesses. Featuring a CMYK + White ink configuration, the BN2-20 expands creative possibilities by allowing users to print on clear, metallic, colored, and specialty media that standard CMYK printers cannot effectively support.
With integrated print-and-cut functionality, faster production speeds, and Roland's renowned reliability, the BN2-20 delivers professional results while maintaining the simplicity and affordability that have made the VersaSTUDIO series a favorite among startup businesses and first-time print providers.
The key advantage of the BN2-20 over the BN2-20A is its five-color CMYK + White ink configuration. White ink allows graphics professionals to create vibrant graphics on dark, transparent, reflective, metallic, and specialty substrates where standard CMYK printing alone would not produce sufficient opacity or visual impact.
This capability opens the door to profitable applications such as window graphics, clear labels, metallic decals, specialty packaging, promotional products, and apparel transfers that require white underprinting or white graphic elements.
The BN2-20 incorporates Roland DG's proven print-and-cut workflow, allowing users to print graphics and automatically contour cut them within a single production process. After printing, the machine precisely locates registration marks and performs contour cutting without requiring material repositioning.
This streamlined workflow improves production efficiency while delivering exceptional registration accuracy for stickers, decals, labels, heat transfer graphics, and custom-shaped promotional products.
Compared to the original BN-20 platform, the BN2-20 delivers more than four times the print speed while maintaining the exceptional image quality Roland users expect. Increased productivity helps businesses complete jobs faster, reduce turnaround times, and maximize equipment utilization.
The addition of an automatic sheet-cut function further simplifies workflow by allowing users to separate completed jobs with the touch of a button.
The BN2-20 includes Roland's modern software ecosystem, giving users everything needed to move from design creation to final output.
DG Connect Designer provides intuitive design and layout tools that help new users quickly create production-ready graphics while offering experienced users additional workflow flexibility.
VersaWorks 7 RIP Software delivers advanced color management, nesting tools, cut line generation, job management, and output controls for professional-quality production.
DG Connect App provides device monitoring, maintenance alerts, operational analytics, and production insights that help maximize uptime and workflow efficiency.
Using Roland's ECO-SOL MAX 2 inks and advanced printhead technology, the BN2-20 produces vibrant colors, smooth gradients, sharp text, and exceptional image detail. White ink capability further expands color vibrancy and opacity when printing on specialty media.
The printer supports a wide range of materials including adhesive vinyl, heat transfer media, clear films, metallic films, labels, posters, wall graphics, and specialty substrates.
The BN2-20 is engineered for businesses with limited space. Its desktop-friendly footprint allows installation in offices, classrooms, studios, home businesses, and small production environments without sacrificing professional capabilities.
Front-access media loading, front-access ink replacement, and integrated storage help maximize efficiency while minimizing workspace requirements.
While both models provide the same professional print-and-cut workflow, the BN2-20 adds white ink capability, enabling production on dark, transparent, metallic, and specialty materials. This expanded versatility allows businesses to offer premium applications such as clear labels, window graphics, metallic decals, and specialty promotional products that are not possible with a standard CMYK-only configuration.
