another question, How would a rip like (pocket rip) figure into this?
RIPs tend to be channels specific devices. Those that use standard RGB profiles could be profiled like any other driver. The "Pocket RIP" is not a RIP at all, in the usual meaning, its an application direct export module. How it functions with profiles depends on what code is written into it for conversions. What advantages are you looking for from this export module, and how do you plan to relate that to RGB images? Is there something wrong with your RGB driver printing that you are looking to fix?I find, for color RGB images, that its darned hard to get better results than the Epson driver with a good custom profile...
You would have to want something very specific, very badly before moving from that workflow to the wild world of RIPs.
