You'll want to compare the lab values rather than the spectral ones-the profile should make a reasonable tristimulus match, but there's no way it'll reproduce the original spectrum on an inkjet.

Personally, I'd take the printer out of the loop, and just look at the lab values I get when I assign the profile to the chart.

The gamma/TRC setting on the scanner has a big impact too. I usually scan and profile at several different gammas and use the above procedure to determine the optimal value.

What would be the best way to verify the quality of a scanner / dcam
profile. ?

Would this make any sense?

Scan target in this case Gretag SG Color Checker Chart

Create scanner / dcam profile

Assign Profile in PS to the scan of the Chart

Print Chart

Using the measure tool read the printed chart and do a compare of spectral
values.

Make necessary corrections to the profile in PM editor
