Roland DG Unveils VersaStudio BY2-20 ─ Bringing Production-Ready Direct-To-Film Printing To Compact Apparel Workflows
Hamamatsu, Japan, June 24, 2026 – Roland DG Corporation, the world’s leading provider of digital printing solutions, today announced the launch of the VersaStudio BY2-20, a compact Direct-To-Film (DTF) printer designed to deliver consistent, high-quality apparel production with confidence.
Built for real-world use, the BY2-20 combines professional print performance with an integrated, production-ready workflow that simplifies operations and enables users to produce reliable results, day after day.
By bringing together advanced print technology, integrated software, and a fully supported ecosystem, it removes much of the complexity associated with DTF printing and helps businesses focus on producing and growing with confidence.
Professional Results Users Can Trust
It supports a wide range of apparel applications, from T-shirts and sportswear to workwear, décor, and accessories.
Refined ink flow, internal temperature control and large-capacity white ink cartridges support predictable performance and stable continuous printing.
Automatic white underbase generation helps simplify production, even in demanding environments where consistency is critical.
A Supported DTF Solution
Designed as an integrated solution, removing the complexity traditionally associated with DTF printing, the BY2-20 brings together hardware, inks, software, media, and support as part of the Roland DG ecosystem.
Firstly, Connect Designer provides design tools to produce artwork, VersaWorks 7 then prepares designs for print, before Roland DG Connect facilitates monitoring and maintenance. Ultimately, this workflow allows users to focus on producing and selling finished products, rather than managing technology.
“With the BY2-20, we set out to redefine expectations for compact Direct-To-Film printing,” said Ryugo Nimura, Executive Officer, Global Sales and Marketing Division, Roland DG. “This is a professional, production-ready solution delivering consistent quality, integrated simplicity, and dependable day-to-day performance. By bringing together hardware, software, inks, media and support into a single workflow, we’re helping businesses protect their reputation by producing professional-quality apparel they can rely on.”
Innovation That Works In Real Production Environments
With its intuitive operation the BY2-20 is well suited to small production spaces and users new to DTF printing, while still delivering the reliability and output consistency required in professional environments.
Engineered for stable day-to-day operation, the system supports continuous production and minimises the hands-on intervention often associated with compact DTF systems.
Enabling Profitable Growth
Its standalone cutting capability allows users to produce heat-transfer vinyl graphics alongside DTF transfers, supporting premium effects such as metallic, glitter and holographic finishes and helping businesses expand their product offering from a single device.
OEKO-TEX🄬 Eco Passport certified S-PG2 inks and S-Powder further reinforce Roland DG’s commitment to responsible production practices and long-term business value.
The BY2-20 will be available from June 2026 via Roland DG and authorised resellers.
