IRVINE, CA, Jan 15, 2026 – Roland DGA will showcase digital printing technologies for customizing apparel, accessories and products at 2026 Impressions Expo, Jan 22-24, Long Beach, CA.

Roland DGA will also present the VersaSTUDIO BY-20 with S-PG2 inks, along with maintenance and software updates focused on print quality and operational reliability.
Beyond apparel printing, Roland DGA will show VersaSTUDIO inkjets, including the BD-12 UV desktop printer and the BN2-30 eco-solvent system for product customization and graphics applications.
