Actually ProofMaster RIP works in many printers, but their inks primarily in those printers which accept after-market inks, such as the Epson 7000 and 9000,Mutoh,Mimaki, etc.
The examination of the RIP was done in intimate detail by Professor Charles Spontelli, VCT, College of Technology, Bowling Green State University of Ohio. Professor Spontelli has an MS degree from Rochester Institute of Technology in printing. His interests include proofing for offset printing, RIP´s and color management.
His report is now posted on www.large-format-printers.org. Since then additional features are available on a new version of ProofMaster
You can also get the reports by Professor Nicholas Hellmuth on RIP´s; available directly from FLAAR.
If you wish to reach their headquarters in Europe, it is Tel (Belgium): 32-(0)2-253 07 32, Fax (Belgium): 32-(0)2-253 36 67. Dr Hellmuth recently visited these facilities and was favorably impressed at the technical knowledge of color management, proofing, and wide format inkjet printers.
