The device is aimed to ease the task of printing road signs such as U Turn, Bus, Arrow Sign and Stop Sign at just the touch of a button. The designs are pre-programmed in the memory of the Road Printer, which are then jet-sprayed onto the surface.

The menu buttons which are to used to print a desired sign are rugged enough to endure a boot or a push from the user’s fingers. The print cartridge swings from side-to-side between the track wheels and is fueled by the paint reservoir that is fitted at the rear of the device for easy refill.
