Roland Versacamm Printer/Cutter Application/Software Guides
This banner printer will be used mostly by administration; however, if your group has a marketing idea involving a banner, we just may be able to print that for you. This printer not only prints on multiple different material types, it can also make cuts, as an example, the moose sticker you see on the left. It was printed on a sheet, then the circle around the moose is stamped out by the machine.

The author discusses the importance of teaching art theory and keeping with current art educational practices, in addition to the use of a makerspace. There is discussion about maker = artist, and thereby connecting the two; however, the author is still concerned with digital technologies disrupting contemporary art education.
