Vinyl printing is the process of applying ink to vinyl sheets to produce graphics using a conventional inkjet printing method with solvent based inks. This is useful for making images into stickers, creating T-shirt graphics, and any task where the appearance of vinyl needs to be changed.
The Maker Hub’s Roland BN-20 packs everything into one powerful package! Printers similar to this are standard in small-scale custom clothing companies due to how easy it is to take a graphic from Adobe Illustrator to a piece of vinyl. With award-winning eco-solvent inks, including metallic and white options, a range of material compatibility, and integrated contour cutting, it is easily the most versatile print device in its class.
The BN-20 is perfect for creating T-shirt graphics, poster prints, stickers and decals, all from the comfort of your desktop. Check out this video to see how it works. For more information, check out the Maker Hub’s Wiki Page.
The Maker Hub exists as a resource and creative outlet for the entire George Fox community (yes, including non-engineers!). We are looking for student aces. A student ace is simply an expert on a piece of equipment who helps train other students on the usage of that equipment and gains extra privileges within the Maker Hub.
Please email makerhub@georgefox.edu if you would like to get connected or have any questions.
