Need RIP Advice

[Happyprinter]

I currently have a Fuji 4300e and need to know what RIP options I have available to drive it. Would prefer not to spend a fortune but we need this machine running. Please let me know what you are using and what is available.

HQ rip will be fine. Do you have the interface card for rip?

 

[Happyprinter]

No I dont. What version harlequin would I need? I'm would like trapping included.

Yes, Halerquin RIP should be OK. It's easy to get, you just need having interface board.
Good luck!

Xitron makes a good version of the Harlequin RIP. This is what we use and have been happy with it. There are also a number of other vendors who do as well though.

Yes, you can go with Xitron or RTI. But the trapping will be expensive.

Xitron will be able to provide you with a RIP and interface, which we designed and manufacture, for the Screen. We have trapping available for the RIP as well.

You could take a look at the StudioRIP, we can drive the Screen units, with a variety of interface options. The RIP it self is a very flexible client/server based system, with options for built in imposition/trapping/proofing/FM. The standard RIP includes Hybrid screen as standard. Cost of options such as trapping are very reasonable, cost for trapping usually a three figure sum, and the RIP it self is very inexpensive There is a free demo version available on the website, should you want to try it, and make up your own mind.
