Are any of these RIPs okay to work with?:
1. Apogee/Viper 1.9.2 - Post Level 2 (with Accuset 1200)
2. Multistar 600 - Post Level 2 (with Select Set 5000)

Any RIP/Imagesetter advice will be helpful.

Thanks!
PS level 2? seriously things have moved on so far from those days, look at going to a softwre RIP, like Highwater, or Xitron, they can drive those devices (with the right card) and cope with PDF as well and will be much much quicker
