Epson Stylus RIP Users Guide Manual

The Epson Stylus RIP software lets you use your Epson Stylus Color or Epson Stylus Photo ink jet printer as a PostScript 3 (Macintosh, Windows 2000, and Windows NT) and level 2 (Windows 95 and 98) compatible printer. It reads the Adobe PostScript files automatically created by the Epson Stylus RIP printer driver, seamlessly converts them into raster images, automatically prints them on your printer. You can use the Espon Stylus RIP with both Macintosh and Windows systems, in standalone or networked configurations. Adobe Post Script is the industry standard for high-quality graphic output. All the elements in a document - including text, graphic, and other images - are processed and reproduced using Post Script code.

Then, when you print from an application such as QuarkXPress, the RIP software creates a raster image from the PostScript code and send it to your printer. Do you need PostScript? In many cases, you may not need the ability to print in PostScript, and for these occasions you should use the standard, non-PostScript driver that comes with your printer. Using the standard driver is also a good way to ensure that your computer and printer are connected and working properly, so make sure you install the non-PostScript Epson driver following the instructions in your printers setup documentation.
