I use HP 7450C to scan a negative in 2400x2400 dpi. Then, in Photoshop 7.0, I resized it to 24"x36" with 600 dpi resolution in TIFF format. After spooling into HP DesignJet 500PS's RIP, a RIP error occurred during RIPing. So, I tried to reduce the resolution to 300 dpi. The result is the same. I changed the format to PSD and tried. It's the same. As I found the RIP was developed by Adobe bundled with the printer, it should be the problem bwtween Photoshop 7.0 and the RIP. Not the printer.As I found the RIP was developed by Adobe bundled with the printer, it should be the problem bwtween Photoshop 7.0 and the RIP. Not the printer. This's because the image can be printed with Windows printer driver. However, you know, RIP is more useful (save jobs, color management,...). 

Anyone encounters this problem? Please help.

What is the RIP error? Details matter.

The RIP software came with HP's printer is so simple that inside it only displays the job name, status and number of copies. The status only shows, processing, riping(%) and printing(%). So, after a couple of minutes of RIPing, it changes to "RIP error". That's all. No error description, number or code. Before entering into this forum, I'd asked HP's support before. They also asked me the same question. That's the support. They even don't know much about their own product. 

I know you are trying to get me out. Please keep on providing me with your guess or hints that I might not think about before. It helps. Thanks.

See if there is any option in the RIP, or in printer setup, to "print
error report" or similar.  There's really no point in speculating
without getting some kind of error message - rather like trying to fix
a car when you can't get the bonnet [hood?] open.
