We have been running Wasatch for over ten years now on a variety of
printers, including 2 hp 5000's currently in use. It has been very
reliable, and not to hard to get around all the settings it offers. Tech
support has been good too, for the few issues that have come up. They
also offer a good upgrade policy that has worked well for us.
The RIP is capable of drive 4 printers at once, for no additional fee,
which has proven to be an economic bonus.
We also have an Ergosoft Rip driving two printers, and it's been a good
performer as well. Haven't tried it with the HP's.

Hi all,
I've seen several posts regarding the HP Designjet 5500 wide format
printer and would appreciate the benefit of your real-world wisdom
regarding the best RIP option.
We just took delivery of one 5500ps with an onboard RIP and are in the
process of purchasing a second unit as a replacement for our aging Oce
printer/Onyx Postershop RIP (version 6.5).
We are considering purchasing the second unit with an external RIP to
give us some flexibility in production. Basically, we'll use the
printer with the onboard RIP as our "Kinko's" low-end product offering
and the printer with the external RIP for our more color critical work
and special medias.
Our options are to upgrade our existing copy of Postershop to version
7, or to invest in an alternate software RIP solution.
Any insights you have to offer would be greatly appreciated.
Sincerely,
Richard
