==Description==
Vinyl Printing is the process of applying ink to vinyl sheets to produce graphics. In the maker hub, this is done by a Roland BN-20 printer/cutter which uses a conventional inkjet printing method with solvent based inks. This is useful for making images into stickers, creating t-shirt graphics, and any task where the appearance of vinyl needs to be changed. Printers similar to this are standard in small scale custom clothing companies due to how easy it is to take a graphic from Adobe Illustrator to a piece of vinyl.
