Fantastic video! Thank you for such sharing your information. This is by far the best video explaining what process one should do to perfect their cutting settings without wasting ink. Never thought about going about it with just the Print setting!
Hi Melissa, i'm having issues where fine prints are printing double lines, would you be able to say how i can perfect the print even though i've set the bidirectional adjustment on a Roland bn20?
melissa, i just got my bn20a and im wondering how do I add registration marks and trace an image to import into versaworks to cut on another plotter? What blade is best for vinyl stickers? is i 45 degree or 60 degree? How do I convert to PDF to use in versaworks?
@@SilhouetteSchool i have the leonardo software. Just wondering if I can use siser juliet with versaworks 6? what would be the easiest and quietest/affordable desktop plotter I can use with versaworks? I have a vinyl express 60inch but its used for auto wraps. I realllly need help! moving from siser/ecotanks to bn20 is really a big change.
@SilhouetteSchool would you suggest the siser cutter or should I get a small graphtec or gcc? Are they equally fast. I have a juliet but 12inch cut is too small
Awesome. I didnt know it was possible to do a die cut like this with paper also shaped like the sticker!!!nice! Im using regular sticker paper. recently replaced my blade and im not going through enough.. Tried the cut only. But when setting pressure like above with cut condition settings , no cut happens. with no cut conditions set, I get a line but not deep enough. 😬
@@SilhouetteSchool Yep I tried... Force of 20, 50, and 100. Maybe I gotta try go 200? . I'll message back if I figure it out....I want to try that die cutting. A much better user experience I would think.
Hey there! The Roland BN-20A is an ecosolvent printer, yes. We have a full section of the blog dedicated to it! www.silhouetteschoolblog.com/p/roland-bn-20a-and-versaworks-tutorials.html
hello, very good video, ask how much is the cost of this Roland bn20 in the US and can my other question be imported to chile? What company do I buy it from, thanks.
Hey there, there are several BN-20A bundles listed and their benefits: www.silhouetteschoolblog.com/p/roland-bn-20a-and-versaworks-tutorials.html I honestly do not know anything about importing to other countries.
Love your videos, you've been so helpful. There is a print house video stating bn20's are not for perfcuts, you'll tear up the cutting strip. I learned this after I had to replace my cutting strip😢
You can do perf cuts with the BN-20 and BN-20A. It's not a work around or hack, the machine and software are designed to do it. The key is making sure your settings are dialed in so you're not cutting too deep and cutting into the cutting strip.

So glad you like it!

What is the blade offset for the 60 degree blade ?
will it print on waterslid decal paper?
If there's a solvent version of that material then it should no be a problem

It depends what software you are using

You can use the Roland and Siser Juliet or Romeo together. Here's a video ruclips.net/video/--hSeKgZLA0/видео.html

@@SilhouetteSchool also, does perf cutting work with those machines? if so how?

Sounds like you need to adjust the force setting

It looks like a good printer, but it works with eco-solvent ink?
