This is a mixed bag; the versions of the Aurelon RIP that build custom
profiles are expensive, and the versions that don't aren't intended for use
with ICC profiles, only "Aurelon fingerprints"... and no CMYK RIP will work
well with the RGB profiles that ProfilerRGB builds. If they can't get what
they need from the Epson's RGB driver with ProfilerRGB, then PressReady for
the 1200 and ProfilerCMYK would do an excellent job, while only increasing
the price by a couple hundred dollars.
Any of the above will undercut an Aurelon RIP's price substantially.
