I thought that was probably the case, but then I looked at some of the profiles, and where 
there are profiles for the same papers, they don't seem very similar to me.  Am I missing 
something?

Also, I thought that -- supposedly -- the 4800, 7800, 9800 were factory calibrated so 
that for color work, at least, all should profile the same, but that the 3800 was not part of 
this product family.  I'd expect this to cause differences -- but it's entirely possible I 
misunderstand, again!
