Well then I wouldn't use the 2 I mentioned then. I meant Colorburst was epson rip but it wasn't either. Another RIP though is powerRIP from iproof. I just turned on my ancient Powermac and thats was also on it.

Colorbyte isn’t Epson. It just runs Epson printers. I need a RIP due to my flourishing interest in printing on vinyl, which is all done with RIPs. I need to proof images through the RIP at 100% use size and it does not matter what the substrate is. AFter I get used to it, I can change my current workflow to use the RIP adn most likely get better prints than through the Epson drive euphemistically called “softRIP”.On Jun 17, 2013, at 4:44 PM, Randy Little wrote:Jan what do you want from this rip? There are also some open source tools but they aren't as user friendly but not crazy either that do a good job. Like Guttenprint and quadtone. Probably not as good as the pay ones but better in some ways then epson.

Epson RIP is Colorburst which was good years ago but I have only used that for a pre press RIP way back when I was doing that sort of thing. So I can't say if its good but here is their link. http://www.colorburstrip.com/On Mon, Jun 17, 2013 at 3:56 PM, Lea Murphy <lea@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote:After taking a master black and white printing class with George DeWolfe I purchased ColorByte for my Epson 3800; I'd been getting inconsistent results using the Epson drivers. ImagePrint fixed that in a hurry.It's expensive but ColorByte has great customer service and a product that works. I have used a wide selection of papers for my black and white work and they all print beautifully without color shift. I don't do much of my own color printing but when I do ImagePrint makes it a breeze.You will need an open USB port for the required dongle.I'm glad I purchased it…printing is absolutely stress free.LeaOn Jun 17, 2013, at 2:45 PM, Jan Faul wrote:NO,. this is not about a death. I am looking at RIPs and wonder if anybody here has anything great to say about the Colorbyte RIP for Epson (and I suppose other) printers.Anybody? I know about RIPs for the PC, but...
