Default Printer and RIP for half-tones

Hi All,
Can anyone suggest an affordable Printer with RIP combo to print out halftones?

I have a 4 color screen printing press that I want to start utilizing!

Thanks!

Ken

How about a Hewlet-Packard 9800 Printer?....You can buy them new for about $200±20% and they will print a transparency size up to 13"x19". As far as the RIP, get Ghostview and Ghostscript. You need both. Ghostscript runs in the background, you NEVER click on it. Ghostview is where you make all your commands. As far as the price.....they're FREE.

If you purchase go with the epson R1800 and FastRIP. U.S. Screen Print and Inkjet Technology sells packages.
