considering a switch to the 5500 with either a BestColor RIP or Praxisoft's
Mach1.
Barry,
The Mach 1 RIP does support the Epson 7500 as well as the 5500. The
question that begs to be asked: what are you hoping to improve by changing
RIPs, image quality, color management?
Although Mach 1 competes with BestColor, the two RIPs are very different.
Information integral to the decision-making process would be what the final
output is intended for; whether large format display, contract proofing or
photo-realistic output. Generally, each RIP, including Wasatch, Onyx &
Fiery, does one thing or another more effectively than the others.
If you need a Mac-based RIP, your options are greatly reduced (the folks at
BestColor would be happy about your Maccentric lifestyle).
Make your decision based on *your* specific requirements. You should find
each one of these RIPs at upcoming trade shows this fall if you have the
ability to wait that long.
May MachPeace be with you,
Robert
