Same problem with Perfection 3170. After analysis, the origin of the problem
comes from the Epson drivers included in Lion:
It was working correctly with OSX prior to Lion and Epson drivers installed
manually (Epson scan utility which seems to be different from the one
installed in Lion).
And it is working well with VueScan on all OSX version.

It is not possible to install Epson Scan application in Lion (Rosetta ?).
I tried also to change the Colorsync profiles but it didn't improve the results
so much (tried the Apple and Epson profiles). Probably a specific Colorsync
profile needs to be created.
