Default do you need a vinyl cutter for decals

I was wondering if you can use an inkjet printer to make decals for to put on car windows? If you can what is the quality of the jobs. Do i need a vinyl cutter/plotter to make a good window decal?

You will need to trim by hand if irregular shapes or use a paper cutter if just square bumper stickers. A vinyl cutter with optic registration will contour cut decals as well. Inkjet decal paper from papilio paper and you will need some sort of uv laminate or overlay sheet.
