Roland BN2-20A 20" Eco-Solvent Printer/Cutter
Overview
Compact Desktop Print & Cut for Decals, Apparel & Signage
The Roland BN2-20A brings professional eco-solvent print and cut into a 20" desktop footprint. It prints vibrant 4-color CMYK graphics and contour cuts them in one automated pass — no separate cutter, no manual alignment — making it an affordable entry point into on-demand graphics production.
Built on the same printhead and ink technology as Roland's larger machines, the BN2-20A delivers output that punches well above its size and price, with print speeds up to four times faster than the original BN-20.

One Device, Full Workflow
The value of an integrated printer/cutter is what it removes: the second machine, the media transfer, the registration step, and the errors that come with each. The BN2-20A prints your graphic, then automatically finds the cut path and contour cuts it to shape — decals, labels, heat-transfer designs, stickers — without the media ever leaving the device. For a start-up or a shop adding capability, it's a complete production system on a desktop.
Applications
Ideal for custom apparel and heat-transfer graphics, decals and die-cut stickers, product and package labels, small signs and posters, window and wall graphics, promotional items, and art and photo reproduction — short-run, on-demand, and personalized work.
