1. A method for resolving an error during printing operations, the method comprising:
detecting an error in processing a page of a print job by a first raster image processor (RIP) of a RIP system;
activating a failover RIP by a front end of the RIP system;
processing the page at the failover RIP, wherein the failover RIP is configured to process the page using a different strategy than the first RIP, wherein the different strategy for the failover RIP is using less memory than the first RIP;
processing a next page of the print job at the first RIP; and
outputting the processed page from the failover RIP to the front end.
