It isn't really that bad if you do the step wedges on the same paper (one sheet).  If you have, for instance, 4 matte papers you are considering, then you can do a series of them on one sheet and decide what is the best.  Maybe you might want to tweak a bit--say, choose a percentage that isn't exactly what you tried and maybe add a bit of ink limit adjustment and try one more test sheet.  I have 11 sheets with 6 step wedges each and I can fairly easily decide what paper, what blend ratio for an image on that paper.

  Thanks, Diane, otherwise, it is really becomes a 'trial and error' 
  experiment...and quite an expensive one too when you take in account 
  paper and ink costs. Nonetheless, I'm going to post this question on 
  yahoo quadtoneRIP and see if others have any suggestions too.
