Newly added BN2-30 printer/cutter and BD-12 UV flatbed printer increase creativity and profitability for users.
Roland DGA has introduced two new models in its VersaSTUDIO Series of compact desktop printers: the BN2-30, a 30-inch eco-solvent printer/cutter, and the BD-12, a UV direct-to-object printer with a 12.2” x 8.3” print bed. These models offer larger work areas than previous versions and are designed to support a range of printing applications.
The 30-inch BN2-30 is a compact device that combines print and contour-cutting capabilities, suitable for producing T-shirt transfers, signs, posters, labels, and custom-shaped graphics. Its space-efficient design supports use in smaller print environments while offering the functionality needed for efficient output. The BN2-30 is compatible with Roland DG’s Eco-Sol MAX 2 eco-solvent inks, available in CMYK and White.
The BD-12 UV flatbed printer supports direct-to-object printing on a variety of three-dimensional items up to A4 size and 102 mm in height, such as smartphone cases, notepads, and promotional goods. Optional rotary attachments allow printing on cylindrical objects up to 50 mm in diameter. It uses EUV5 UV inks in CMYK and White, suitable for materials ranging from fabric and leather to wood and plastic. Clear ink enables gloss, matte, and textured effects, while an optional Primer ink improves adhesion on glass and metal surfaces.
Both the BN2-30 and BD-12 are equipped with technologically advanced printheads that deliver high-resolution output and offer multiple print modes ideal for different applications, making it easy for anyone to achieve professional-quality results. These machines are also designed for simple operation and optimum convenience. Each device has only a single power button – all other functions are performed with the included Utility software, which features easy-to-understand icons and quick, intuitive access to menu items.
The BN2-30 and BD-12 also come standard with FlexiDESIGNER VersaSTUDIO Edition software that can be used for everything from design creation to printing, as well as VersaWorks 7 – Roland DG’s most advanced, user-friendly RIP software to date. VersaWorks 7, which now supports both Windows and macOS, is packed with powerful tools and features that help maximize print quality, improve efficiency, and increase productivity. With FlexiDESIGNER and VersaWorks 7 included, even those who have never used design and output software before can create the items they desire quickly and easily.
Users also have access to Roland DG Connect, a comprehensive cloud-based platform that enables print professionals to manage their entire print operations with a single app. Roland DG Connect provides you with a detailed understanding of your printers while keeping your devices running at peak performance, reducing downtime, and maximizing efficiency. It also puts everything you need to create, optimize, and grow – from real-time monitoring and business insights to inventory management tools and seamless support – at your fingertips.
The BN2-30 and BD-12 are priced to be affordable for first-time users. Both products are also backed up by comprehensive manufacturer warranties, and optional extended maintenance contracts are available for extra peace of mind.
