RIP Solutions
Enhance your printers ability by adding a RIP solution. RIP software such as the Color Burst RIP add to the functionality of the printer by adding ability and control beyond the printer's driver.
Primarily the ability to deal with postscript data which is generated when using layout software such as Quark or Adobe Illustrator. There are also enhanced features such as more control over calibrations and profiles. The below versions of the ColorBurst RIP offer different levels of control and
features. The ColorBurst RIP supports both MAC and PC environments, note there are features such as nesting that are
available only in the PC version of the RIP.
