This is actually a really interesting question, and I'm not sure that there is necessarily a one size fits all answer. In many cases for Epson, their cut sheet media is produced by a different company than their roll media, of the same name. So not all luster paper is actually produced the same way, even though the visual appearance of the surface is virtually identical. The color behaviors will be slightly different. They're still quite similar but because of this, I maintain separate profiles for cut sheet and roll media of the same name for otherwise identical driver settings.

I have no data demonstrating how common this is with Epson, let alone other paper manufacturers.
