Digital BW, The Print

I own a custom black & white {wet} lab and am now setting up a 
digital darkroom. I have two printers, a epson 3000 which I will 
dedicate exclusively to black and white using the piezography bw or 
MIS, and a epson 7600 which I will use both for color and black and 
white printing. Which rip should I get for the 7600? I've heard the 
imageprint is great when it works right but can have a lot of 
glitches and cause endless hours of frustration. Of course Ilford 
wants me to use there Onyx based rip and epson thinks thiers is great 
too. I should also state that I am new to digital printing and will 
be learning as I go.
