Was reading in the colour management thread, i think, some one mentioned RIP.
Can someone enlighten me on that.
It's a Raster Image Processor. It's printing software that interfaces
directly with your printer, bypassing both imaging software (like
Photoshop) and your printer's drivers.
I've tried the Harrington Quad-Tone RIP for B&W printing but it
apparently takes a lot of experimentation and tweaking to get things
looking right. I'll experiment more when I have time. Probably June
after GFM :)
If you want good starting points for QTR, I highly suggest joining the
Digital B&W group on Yahoo. Paul Roark is particularly knowledgable, and
Roy Harrington lurks on the list. Paul in fact is the designer of MIS's
dedicated B&W inksets and has profiles available for those inks and many
common papers.
