System Requirement Windows

The following table lists the minimum and recommended system setup to run the RIP Software. System requirements vary according to the size of the files to be scanned and printed, the output device used, and other variables. Your particular setup and intended use of the software determine what hardware and software setup you need to get the most out of the RIP Software. If you are working with relatively small files, the minimum setup may be sufficient. Similarly, if you are working with large files, you should consider the recommended setup. Consult your dealer for advice when choosing a system.
