I need a new color postscipt printer, (inkjet or laser) that I can use for page layout programs.
I am looking at the epson 2200 with the postscript rip. Does anyone have experience with it and it is worth buying.

I had an Epson 1280 with a rip which worked great on OS9, but they dont make a rip for the 1280 on OSX. I am considering the 2200 with the rip but need advice.

I only have about $1000 to spend an a color postscipt printer what should I do?

I have Power Rip X - it's great for proofing images, especially as you can print to different profiles.

hope this helps...
