*sigh* Which makes me wonder whether I need to replace my HP Scanjet IIIc
if the sRGB limitation isn't that much of a problem.  I've tried asking on
the Epson
inkjet list what flatbed brands/models are best for profiling and nobody
seemed
interested in making a response.  I can get a new Epson scanner at a
reasonable
price, but if I'd be better off with a Umax or Microtek, I'd rather buy the
right one
in the first place!  I think I *do* need to replace the HP IIIc not because
the
output is sRGB but because it's old and the A/D technology is not as good
as current technology.  Its definition in shadows is not great, which is
more
probably the limitation imposed on profiles made with it than sRGB. :-7
