This is a lousy response. The guy wants to know how to assign a profile to a imported scanned image, not how to scan. Many scanned images will not have any profile assignment. Would it be better to assign a sRGB profile to the original acquired image using Photoshop if the scanner doesn’t have a profile, or would it be better to not assign a profile to the original image?

To Bobby: Open the image in Photoshop, then go to image>mode>assign profile. Here you can select the profile you want to assign to the image. If you have a profile for your scanner it should be one of the listed profiles – if you have the scanner profile in the correct folder.

No, it’s not. You won’t anything that the people in
comp.periphs.scanners don’t know about using scanners and their attendant profiles. You should try it sometime and then you wouldn’t be so ignorant of the amount of available help in that group.,
