There is only one flavor of sRGB, the one you mentioned last. There  
are some
official variants like "Enhanced sRGB" = e-sRGB. But they have a  
different naming.

What you experienced is perhaps the quality of several products  
matching the
official sRGB standard, thus looking like different sRGBs but in  
reality being non
optimized software in those devices.

"sRGB printers" simply pretend to have a sRGB optimized input chanel.  
They
internally map all color information to what the engineers felt to be  
the real gamut.
