QUESTION: What is a RIP?

ANSWER: RIP stands for "Raster Image Processor." A RIP is a device or a software program that converts page-description-language code to the format required by the print engine in a printer or imagesetter. (The print engine is the machinery that actually makes marks on a page.)

For more information see "What is rasterization?"
