Customization is king these days, and UV printing is changing the game. In our latest video, Kevin demonstrates how the Roland BD-8 UV Desktop Printer can print vibrant, durable graphics directly onto a lunchbox. No labels, no transfers, and no complicated setup. Just clean, professional results that make everyday items stand out.
What Makes the Roland BD-8 Stand Out?
The Roland BD-8 UV Desktop Printer is built for creators and businesses that want flexibility without sacrificing quality. As Kevin explains in the video, this printer is designed to handle rigid and specialty items with ease.
Key highlights include:
- High precision output with sharp details, including a high-definition printhead
- Simple workflow that is easy to learn, even for those with no prior print experience
- Print vibrant, detailed graphics and text directly on a vast array of 3D objects up to 4″ thick
- Compact design for desktop, ideal for small home offices, retail shops, and maker spaces
- Built-in fume extractor ensures optimum safety by filtering out fumes
Watching the lunchbox being printed in real time really drives home how versatile UV printing can be. From promotional products to personalized gifts, the possibilities are wide open.

Why UV Printing Is a Game Changer
UV printing uses ultraviolet light to instantly cure the ink as it’s printed. This means the ink bonds directly to the surface, resulting in prints that are durable, scratch-resistant, and visually striking. In the video, you can clearly see how the ink lays down smoothly on the lunchbox without bleeding or distortion.
UV printing is especially useful for:
- Custom promotional items
- Branded merchandise
- Short-run specialty products
- Creative projects with unique materials
Kevin does a great job breaking down how easy it is to go from design to finished product, even on non-traditional substrates.

Built for Precision and Ease of Use
The Roland BD-8 combines user-friendly operation with professional-grade results. From artwork placement to final curing, the process is straightforward and efficient. This balance of simplicity and performance makes UV printing an attractive option for both seasoned print professionals and newcomers.

Perfect for Business and Creative Projects
If you’re looking to expand your product offerings or explore new creative avenues, the Roland BD-8 UV Desktop Printer is a solid option. Printing directly on items like lunchboxes opens new revenue streams and helps businesses stand out in crowded markets. Direct-print on a wide variety of materials, including plastics, paper, leather, and wood – even glass and metal with the onboard primer ink.
This video clearly shows that UV printing is not just for large production environments. With the right desktop printer, small businesses and creatives can achieve professional results without a massive footprint or learning curve. Included VersaWorks 7 professional output software and FlexiDesigner VersaSTUDIO Edition design software make design, operation, and production easier than ever.
