If you send a wider gamut file to a photographic printer, the paper will clip." This only addresses what is being sent to the photo paper, and addresses specifically why sRGB is preferred for this printing application. I made no mention of image processing prior to sending to the printer. I convert all my PEFs to ProPhoto RGB and then convert to sRGB as the final stage prior to printing, if I am printing to photo paper.
