Why Roland’s New Models Matter for Colorado’s Printing Landscape

Colorado’s diverse economy—ranging from hospitality and tourism to boutique retail, schools, breweries, and start-ups—creates a perfect environment for on-demand, customized printing. With the rise of personalization, direct-to-object decoration, and short-run apparel production, businesses need equipment that is compact, easy to use, and versatile.

Roland’s newest printers deliver just that. Designed to fit comfortably in office settings, workshops, and small retail spaces, these machines pack professional-grade output into a footprint you can manage without major renovations or complex installations.

Meet the VersaSTUDIO BN2-30: Compact, Capable, and Ready for Business

The VersaSTUDIO BN2-30 is the newest member of Roland’s eco-solvent printer/cutter lineup. It builds upon the legacy of the BN2-20 with a larger 30-inch print width, while still maintaining a desktop-friendly size. That means more room to handle bigger print jobs without sacrificing the simplicity and affordability that small businesses love.

What makes the BN2-30 a standout?

• Integrated Print & Cut: This model combines vibrant eco-solvent printing with precise contour cutting, allowing you to produce stickers, decals, apparel transfers, labels, and signage in one seamless workflow.
• Enhanced Speed & Precision: Engineered for efficiency, it delivers faster production times and higher detail fidelity than its predecessors.
• Plug-and-Play Simplicity: Easy setup and user-friendly software make it ideal even for first-time print business owners.

For businesses in Denver, Boulder, and beyond looking to add customized product options—whether that’s branded water bottles, window graphics, or custom T-shirts—the BN2-30 offers a balance of performance, ease of use, and affordability.

VersaSTUDIO BD-12: Small Footprint, Big Impact

Next in line is the VersaSTUDIO BD-12 UV printer. This compact direct-to-object flatbed printer allows you to print vibrant, detailed graphics on a wide range of substrates, including plastic, wood, leather, metal, acrylic, and more.

Why is the BD-12 turning heads?

• True Direct-to-Item Printing: Print full-color images directly onto products like phone cases, coasters, packaging, and promotional items.
• Versatile Material Support: UV-curable inks adhere to a wide variety of materials, expanding what you can offer clients.
• Compact Design: With a bed size optimized for desktop use, it’s a great fit for offices and storefronts.

This model is perfect for Colorado artisans, boutique retailers, or event planners who want to offer personalized gifts or branded promotional items with fast turnaround. It opens doors for limited-edition runs, test batches, or product customization without the high entry costs of traditional flatbed UV printers.

Introducing the Roland TY-300: Direct-to-Film Reinvented

The Roland TY-300 brings DTF (Direct-to-Film) printing into a new era. Designed to handle high-volume apparel production with ease, it enables businesses to create vibrant, durable garment transfers on demand.

Key features include:

• Exceptional Output Speed: Print large volumes of transfers quickly, without compromising color accuracy.
• Excellent Wash Durability: Prints retain their color and softness even after multiple washes, ensuring quality for your customers.
• Versatile Apparel Compatibility: Suitable for cotton, polyester, blends, and dark or light garments alike.

DTF printing has exploded in popularity thanks to its flexibility and cost-efficiency. The TY-300 gives you a competitive edge, whether you’re producing T-shirts for a local marathon, work uniforms for a construction crew, or trendy designs for your online store.

How These Models Complement Your Business Goals

Each of these new devices serves a unique niche, but together they represent a powerful toolkit for growth. Here’s how they align with common business goals:

• Expand Product Offerings: Add everything from stickers to drinkware to your catalog with a BN2-30 or BD-12.
