Hello Graeme,
In the CS2 era, I remember a discrepancy existing between the way InDesign
interfaced to the Epson driver to the way Illustrator and Photoshop
interfaced to the Epson driver (any RGB driver, in fact). And because of
that discrepancy it was simply not possible to obtain similar results from
all three apps. Has things changed since then? Your comments seem to suggest
they have not. Even though I was told back then that it would be fixed by
the next major release...
The only thing I'd suggest you try, to rule out any ColorSync-related
issues, is to install Epson's R4200 print driver under Windows and re-do the
comparison with all CS3 apps from under Windows. I know this may not prove
practical but you'll have your answer that way for sure.
