I'm not clear whether you want to read the densities of you inkjet 
negative, in which case you'd need to use a densitometer; or whether you 
want to measure the densities of a contact print made from one of those 
negatives. There are some systems out there that do that latter, for 
example Dan Burkholder and Mark Nelson both have systems for making 
inkjet negatives. You might want to Google them and check out there 
systems.  The Spyder Print device could certainly read the densities of 
a print, and it would be too hard to make an adjustment curve.  You 
might want to ask the question at Hybridphoto.com.
