No, it doesn't.
The Illuminant is fixed. The dynamic range of fixed. The item being
scanned has a fixed gamut (cameras don't). The film or print being
scanned CAN be also created as a target for the profile process. You
can't do this with a target for a digital camera as is being discussed
(at least ONE target that describes everything you'll place in front
of the camera). Scanners can and should be put into a default and
ideal condition for building the profile (a scanner that produces an
auto correction behavior can't be profiled, you're chasing your tail).
That you find a scanner and a digital capture device that produce
essentially a single channel grayscale document that's scene referred
anything approaching what a scanner captures (which is output
referred), leads me to believe you have more reading to do.
