This is the RIP that started it all. We have sold over 3,500 FastRIP Standards around the world since 2001. It has become the standard way to get imagesetter quality on an inkjet printer. FastRIP standard works with the Epson 2200, 1520 and 3000. It works with CorelDraw, Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Illustrator, Macromedia Freehand, and Quark on both Mac and PC platforms. Print 13" x 18" output on an Epson 2200 at either 720 and 1440dpi for great detail and halftone dots up to 85 lpi. Besides film output you can print calibrated color proofs, heat transfers using coated transfer paper, AND halftoned color proofs. Average print time for a 12" x 12" image is three to six minutes.

What is FastRIP™?
FastRIP™ is a PostScript interpreter called a Raster Image Processor or RIP. Without PostScript it is impossible to print hight-quality halftone dots on a "non-PostScript" inkjet printer such as an Epson 2200 or 4000. Even if your printer has PostScript, it may not be able to print halftone dots because PostScript is often just used to calibrate and balance colors on an inkjet. The Epson "RIP" does not print halftone dots! FastRIP™ does!
And, FastRIP™ tells the inkjet printer to lay down a much denser deposit of black ink. You will think you are looking at imagesetter quality output. And... the halftone dots are carefully calibrated so if you specify a 50% dot you get a 50% dot on the film!
Easy To Use
With FastRIP™ you print directly from Adobe® Photoshop®, Illustrator®, Corel™ Draw, Freehand or FastFilms™. There are no additional steps and no confusing commands or "hot folders." Just press the print button as you normally would. You specify the halftone line count and angle just like you always do. And, when you burn screens from clear film with crisp, sharp, black images that are as dense as imagesetter output, you will find your screens expose MUCH better. No more playing with exposure times like you do with laser output. Your halftone dots are a thing of beauty!
And... there is more!
You aren't limited by the size anymore. If you output to an Epson 4000, you can print up 17"x22". Better yet, go to the Epson 7600 and output 24" wide material or the Epson 9600 and get 44" output! This is HUGE. No more tiling and no more shrinking jobs to fit on your laser printer. Plus the registration is DEAD ON! You can also do accurate, calibrated paper color proofs in both normal inkjet output or in halftones so the customer will see what the print will really look like. And if you print T-Shirt transfers using special coated paper, FastRIP™ is calibrated to make them look great! The FastRIP™ manual and training DVD are also available in Spanish!
A word about cheaper "rip-offs" of FastRIP™
There are now imitation programs on the market that claim to do what FastRIP™ does. Please don't be misled by ad copy and grand claims. FastRIP™ is the #1 RIP on the market. A RIP is NOT the place to save $100. If you want excellent support from people who know screen printing, a manual you can understand, and most importantly - a product that WORKS - purchase a mature and proven product - FastRIP™. Anyone can offer free support and free upgrades but the trick is to be in business to make good on those promises.
