13. Do I need to use a RIP or can I use the standard printer driver to make plates?
The RIP is required to produce plates because it controls the separations, screening, and ink density on
the plates to ensure optimal quality. You can however, use the standard Epson Printer driver to print
photographs, banners, or other print jobs.
14. Does the RIP support trapping?
The EFI CTP RIP supports trapping that was set and applied in an application (such as Adobe Creative
Suite) and passes that information through to the printed plates. However it does not support initiating or
editing trap settings from within the EFI RIP itself.
