By default the Epson software doesn't use compression on TIF files, and bitmap files don't allow you to do 48-bit scanning. Turning off all image correction settings (including the auto-exposure "Color Control" which is not in the main set of image processing options) stopped embedding the Epson sRGB color profile in my scans. | |
