The Topaz supports LinoColor 6.0 which matches Photoshop 6.0.
LinoColor 5.0 only soft-proofs and proof-prints with Absolute Colorimetric
which equates to the Paper White command in Photoshop 6.
LinoColor 5.0 does not embed profiles into outgoing RGB and CMYK data
offering the following application a concept of which colors the RGB or CMYK
pixels should reproduce.
There are other differences, but the above are sufficient indication that
you must upgrade your scanner software first of all.

Not surprising.

I don't have LinoColor 5.0 installed and can't help.
However, in LinoColor 6.0.X you apply the profile you are separating for
directly in the profile popup in the prescan window for an RGB to CMYK 'scan
for print' job, and then embed the profile on saving out the data. Or you
finescan into ICC Lab D50, save to disk and open in Photoshop 6 / InDesign 2
or any other application that supports standard Lab. If you save out via an
RGB working space or convert into an RGB working space, take care that you
choose one which enough gamut valume. Adobe RGB (1998) or eciRGB10 are the
default options for print workflows.
Hope this helps.
