Open Source and/or Freeware RIP's?

I have an HP 3500cp 54" printer. It has a built in "mini RIP." I have read that a proper RIP will improve performance and quality.
Is there a open source under linux or windows available? My net searches don’t seem to yield anything conclusive.

At work, we have an HP 30n (I believe) and we have to use a (rather expensive) EFI Designer Edition for HP RIP it’s a pain in the ass, the license dongle has expired at least twice, and their customer service is terrible. But when everything is working the prints come out pretty nice. We also have an old HP ColorproGA that needs a (now unsupported) Adobe RIP which only runs on ancient versions of mac os, there might be a windows version out there somewhere. Haven’t found a free RIP that actually works, sorry. I don’t understand why the printer manufacturers can’t come out with their own damn drivers.
