So what's the deal with a RIP?
RIPS (raster image processor software) were at one time the only way that people could translate their line art into pixels for printing. Most professionals used or imported Postscript files and made large format print graphics from these files. Printers have a specific printer language they understand and they do not print lines. They print dots of inks. And what we hope they do is print pixels of computer graphic files accurately and with a great degree of control over color. The RIP makes the translation from line art into pixels into printer dots. Well they are expensive, so there must be something that makes them worthwhile! And there is truly.
