Hello,

I have a Epson R800 and a Canon IP4000.
Wich RIP do you suggest me to use to produce good Color result?
Note that this RIP must act as a Drive, I mean I can select it as a printer
driver when printing, not exporting a graphic file then opening it in the
RIP.

thanks

John.

The main company for these things seems to be EFI (www.efi.com) if you
contact them they can put you in suggest a local dealer who will be able
to help further.

IIRC it stands for Raster Image Processor (or something like that) they
tend to get used by (comparatively) big machines. eg, I have a (second
hand) Canon colour copier that weighs in at about 600lbs! Anyway, the
RIP is a box that sits next to the photocopier and turns it into a
printer, which is mostly what I use it for.

For what it's worth- All printers have a RIP. Most desktop printers have a
RIP built in. This is the processor that changes the information in your
document into a matrix of dots that actually get placed on a page. Large
professional printers have RIPs that reside on a separate computer, located
either between the host computer and the printer or the network and the
printer. Some (low-end) modern printers use the same engine that creates
graphics on you screen as a RIP, these are the so-called "Windows Printers"
or "GDI printers". Regardless of where it's done, printers need a processor
to convert document information into dots.

try www.iproofsystems.com - they specialize in Epson and I'm pretty sure
they have some RIPs for Canons and HPs.
