Hey everyone.

We have an HP 8500 printer in our office and it's dang slow. I'm
currently looking into speeding it up and I thought maybe a separate
RIPer might do the trick.

A RIPer (as I understand it) is a computer that takes the task of
changing the data sent from a computer into the data a printer can
understand. When dealing with large files (say pages in a catalog) with
hires (300 dpi) images, the printer gets a little slow. A RIPer takes
the burden off of the printer and puts it on itself. After the RIPer is
done converting the data it sends it off to the printer to print.

Is there such a thing for Linux (specifically Redhat)?


Thanks,
Chris.
