Our take on the Roland BY-20 Direct to Film 20" Printer with Oven

The Roland BY-20 is a compact desktop direct-to-film printer and cutter built for small apparel shops, studios and classrooms. It prints full-color transfers onto film for cotton, polyester, denim, nylon, rayon and blends, then contour-cuts heat transfer graphics from PVC sheets. The no-weeding DTF workflow skips the vinyl weeding step that slows traditional heat transfer work. It ships with VersaWorks 7 RIP software and the DG Connect app and designer tools. Against larger industrial DTF units it trades speed and roll width for a small front-access footprint and a lower entry point into DTF production.

Pros
  • Prints DTF transfers for cotton, polyester, denim, nylon, rayon and blends
  • No-weeding workflow saves labor versus vinyl heat transfer
  • Integrated contour cutting handles PVC sheets and print-and-cut work
  • S-PG2 inks improve white density and ink laydown
  • Compact front-access desktop footprint
  • Ships with VersaWorks 7, DG Connect App and DG Connect Designer
Cons
  • 20-inch width limits large-format or high-volume runs
  • Desktop DTF output is slower than industrial roll printers
  • Needs a separate heat press and powder shaker to finish transfers
  • DTF consumables, film and ink add ongoing running costs
  • Small-shop machine, so heavy production use will strain it

Questions and answers

What can the BY-20 print on?
It produces DTF transfers for cotton, polyester, denim, nylon, rayon and blends, plus contour-cut heat transfer graphics from PVC sheets. Finished transfers are applied with a heat press.
Do I need a heat press to use it?
Yes. The BY-20 prints and cuts the transfer, but applying it to fabric needs a heat press. DTF also requires adhesive powder and a curing step after printing.
What software comes with it?
VersaWorks 7 RIP software, DG Connect Designer and the DG Connect App are included. Together they cover layout, RIP and job workflow for the printer.
How wide are the transfers it makes?
It is a 20-inch class printer, so transfers are limited to that media width. That suits shirts, jerseys, totes and aprons rather than large-format graphics.
Is it good for a small shop or classroom?
Yes. The compact front-access desktop footprint and no-weeding workflow fit small shops, studios and classrooms. High-volume production is better served by a larger industrial DTF unit.
What inks does it use?
It uses Roland S-PG2 inks, which the company says improve white density, ink laydown and output stability. White ink is what makes DTF transfers work on dark fabrics.
