Rip Combo - Epson R1400 - 13" Wide (STANDARD)

RIP Combos are used to make Film Positives. Using a stock inkjet printer will not print dark enough ink on the film allowing light to shine through the image and will result in loss of detail and/or an exposed image. The RIP Combo uses RIP software that tells the printer lay down more ink with crisp edges. The Combination of an Epson Printer, RIP Software, and Waterproof film results in a super opaque image with crisp edges and also gives you half tone capabilities. Every part of the RIP Combo serves a purpose.

AccuRIP™ is a PostScript interpreter called a Raster Image Processor or RIP. Without PostScript it is impossible to print high-quality halftone dots on a "non-PostScript" inkjet printer such as an Epson. 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, but AccuRIP™ does! AccuRIP™ works with the following Epson Printers: 800, 1280, 1400, 1520, 1800, 2200, 3000, 4000, 4800.
