Re: Good RIP for the Epson 2200??

2006-04-14 by Louis Dina

I'd agree with Tyler.  I own ImagePrint and have tried ColorBurst, 
StudioPrint and a few others with my 2200.  Most RIPs either do not 
support the 2200, or do so grudgingly, since it is not 
a "professional" series printer.  Apparently, some of the features 
are not easily addressable by a RIP, or so some of the RIP 
manufacturers claim.  Besides, the Epson driver with a good custom 
profile does a superb job on most papers.  There may be a few papers 
that need more precise ink limiting and linearization, but they 
should be few.

I recommend a custom RGB profile with the Epson driver.  It does a 
better job than ImagePrint (with or without a custom profile), and 
besides, ImagePrint is very expensive for what you are getting.  Save 
your money for some new toys!
