    From what I've seen both machines are excellent, I've hade prints from the BN on garment film and I think all printed stuff can fade over time (not unexpected) laminated printed stickers are very durable though. I would call some of the dealers as many have started with the BN and then upgraded to larger machines, although a great entry level machine just a little too small for the sign industry.

    True not good for the sign industry but perfect for garment or sticker/decal industry its not often that you need wider than 480mm for a tee or sweatshirt.

    I thought gassing off was more about the type of inks used and mimaki do an ecosolvent, perhaps it's not popular. Back to space, unless it's ecosolvent you'll need good ventilation. A dyesub member also told me 1 years (renewable) Roland Bronze warranty on a BN20 is worth £736 so when comparing new and secondhand prices it's worth bearing in mind.

    Funnily, if you start the print & cut process before you go to bed, it's ready for weeding by the time you get up - even if you are an early riser :)

    The Roland BN20 is a small Versacamm - sort of :)

    I've heard good things about the BN20 but isn't it pretty small? The print speed aside (which I've heard can be very slow) its not like you are going to get a large area done.

    Can be left for weeks..... twice a day it cycles itself to keep the heads clear very minimal ink use.
