I was under the impression (and it is my HO only :)) that any RIP will only be of real value if you output text and vector graphics in your images. A properly calibrated printer and custom profile (not a canned manufacturer's one) for the ink and paper combination that you use will produce fantastic images at a fraction of the cost of a RIP. I guess there may be some speed benefits with a RIP, but AFAIK, it's not vital to your workflow. I'm sure Neil B will have something to say on this though! :)
