That's, no doubt, why when "No Color Management" is selected in Color
Settings (in Elements, which I am assuming beginners have or should have)
the view and the print are the same as if Gray Gamma 2.2 is selected.  Since
those -- No Color Management and GG 2.2 -- are the 2 defaults I've seen in
copies of Elements, novice users can just ignore the issue and use the
defaults.
