Some modern ink-jet printer gamuts well exceed the gamut of sRGB on
the right papers and many don't fit the Adobe RGB gamut either, a case
of the tail wagging the dog. The optimum print results are generally
obtained by preserving image files in a wide gamut colourspace and
using device/paper specific profile to print.
