I understand and am less limited :-)

Though in another market segment the Eye One iO seems the way 
to go to make better profiles easily.
Automated measuring is convenient, delivers consistent results 
but will also make the task easier for measuring more patches, 
more printed targets, more measurement runs of a target.
Within the limits of the sensor technology there is some gain 
possible by averaging measurements and increasing patch 
numbers. The software should then allow averaging but Excel 
could do the job if it isn't available in the software.
The hardware for it shouldn't be that expensive. The iO 
solution is a nice design but a more conventional plotter 
design with the sensor integrated would work as well. Monitor 
calibrators are already low in price so there's no need for 
double functions. Single patch readings may not be easy then 
but with a clever design that could be solved too.
