UV DTF with the BD-12
With the BD-12, you can produce UV DTF decals for transferring intricate designs onto a variety of surfaces* and shapes with no weeding required, such as plastics, metal, wood, acrylic, glass and more. The BD-12 delivers vibrant, detailed prints every time, ideal for putting photos, text, and logos onto products like personalized technology, fashion accessories, event merchandise and more.
* Testing is recommended for each material that graphics will be applied to. Items with graphic transfers should be washed by hand, as machine washing is known to reduce adhesion.

The printer supports True Rich Color 3, a print setting that helps optimize color vibrancy and accuracy, and has a variety of print modes with built-in setting information for specific applications, ensuring optimal results on smooth, curved and uneven surfaces. No print expertise needed: BD Series settings are optimized for consistent, high-quality results, even on curved or uneven surfaces.
Print Vibrant Light Colors on Dark Surfaces
Print light colors on dark surfaces with Roland's white ink cartridge. Plus, with the onboard Primer ink, designs can be printed on textures like glass and metal. Offer bold, vibrant designs on any color material, perfect for fashion, tech accessories, and branded goods.
Reproducing Luster, Texture and a Touchable Feel
Using Clear ink produces premium gloss and matte finishes which can be applied in multiple layers for a simulated embossing look and textures that seem amazingly lifelike.
