What ever works for you... I think it is easier to print a small wedge and then simply compare it to the print that needs to be spotted. A second advantage is that if you have a fair number of prints to spot there is plenty of ink mix. More likely, though, is that I am an old codger and that is the way, sort of, I learned to use Spotone many years ago...
