I'm still walking the fence on RIPs....
At an ASMP meeting tonight, I was told that ImagePrint "uses the Epson driver engine internally and is an RGB RIP that is incapable of independently controlling the ink channels" of an Epson 9600. Fact or fiction? I was also told that there is no linearization or GCR possible with ImagePrint. Seems to be true from what I can find on the web site. There were comments to the effect that the image layout features were very good, but that the image quality was less than that of several Windows-only RIPs (e.g. ErgoSoft's StudioPrint) because ImagePrint is "limited by the internal use of the Epson driver code, which limits the ink and therefore the gamut" of the 9600.
Can anyone advise me as to whether or not there's merit to any of this? I decided to hold off on purchasing a RIP until after the GATF Color Management Conference next week. I feel like I still don't have adequate data.
Thanks,

P.S. Someone from Tucson contacted me off-list a couple of weeks ago. I had just returned from Costa Rica and I lost your contact info - but would love to talk to you. Try again. Thanks.
