The Roland VersaStudio BY2-20 DTF Printer brings dependable, production-ready direct-to-film printing to apparel shops, studios, and growing garment decoration businesses. Its compact design combines improved white ink performance, automated maintenance, integrated Roland software, and standalone cutting capability in one versatile 20-inch machine.
Produce detailed, full-color transfers for T-shirts, sportswear, bags, workwear, promotional apparel, and more. Finished transfers can be applied to cotton, polyester, denim, nylon, rayon, and blended fabrics, giving shops the flexibility to handle short runs, custom orders, and ongoing production.
Why the Roland BY2-20 Stands Out
Dual White Ink for More Consistent Production
The BY2-20 expands the ink configuration from CMYKW to CMYKWW, using two dedicated white ink cartridges and supply lines. This dual white system helps maintain stronger white density, clarity, and consistency during longer production runs—especially important when printing transfers for dark garments.
Choose 220 mL or 500 mL Ink Cartridges
The BY2-20 accepts both 220 mL and 500 mL S-PG2 ink cartridges. The larger 500 mL option reduces the cost per milliliter and requires fewer cartridge changes, making it a valuable improvement for shops increasing production. Smaller 220 mL cartridges remain available for lower-volume users.
Enhanced DTF Ink Delivery
A DTF-optimized internal ink path, raised cartridge position, increased head pressure, enhanced filtration, and internal cooling help stabilize ink delivery during production. These improvements reduce negative pressure fluctuations and support more dependable white ink performance from job to job.
Sharp Detail and Strong White Coverage
With output resolution up to 1,440 dpi, the BY2-20 produces fine lines, small text, detailed graphics, vibrant color, and strong white underbases. Controlled ink delivery and S-PG2 inks support reliable wash durability and consistent output across a wide range of apparel applications.
Simplified Artwork and White-Layer Setup
Roland DG Connect Designer and VersaWorks 7 simplify artwork preparation and DTF output. Automatic white-layer generation supports PNG, PDF, EPS, and PS files, reducing artwork preparation time and making the workflow easier for both experienced operators and first-time DTF users.
Automated Maintenance and Easier Service
Automated maintenance functions help keep the printer ready for production while reducing downtime and manual intervention. The BY2-20 also features a user-replaceable cap and wiper, improved maintenance notifications, and clearer cleaning guidance for a more manageable daily maintenance routine.
DTF Printing and Standalone Cutting
In addition to DTF transfers, the BY2-20 supports standalone cutting for HTV graphics, lettering, numbering, and specialty media. This allows shops to expand into cut-only and hybrid DTF/HTV applications without adding a separate cutter.
Compact, Production-Ready Design
The front-loading media design makes the BY2-20 easier to place and operate in retail shops, studios, and smaller production areas. Multi-color LED status indicators provide quick visual updates, while the integrated print heater, dryer, and media cut-off functionality support a streamlined workflow.
