Been years since I Have looked, thinking technology is always moving... Wondering if there is any hardware and media available to print and contour cut (from Flexi) decals that will hold up, not fade or smudge within reason? The Roland BN20 looked great before but is there a better option? This would be used for small qty, proofs, maybe up to 6x6", contour cut.

Man who touches printers inappropriately.
Boils down to quantity, durability, lamination, etc? A cheap roll feed solvent printer, a cheap 24" vinyl cutter with registration mark reader and a small laminator will cover most people. However, you'll want to keep the printer going to keep heads clear, take on maintenance and still be in a good $3-5K if wanting to do anything that will do decent outdoor stuff.

It's better to have two hands than one glove.
The answer is contained in your question "..way to print/cut small qty color decals?...". The way to do this is a printer and a plotter. Lamination optional. What printer, what plotter? iI doesn't really matter since these machines have no special mode for printing and cutting decals of any quantity. Printers print and plotters cut. beyond that it comes down to personal preference and what you figure you can afford.
