Digital BW, The Print

Jeff,
 
unfortunately I haven't a spectrophotometer, and I can only access a flatbed
scanner at work: I tried a couple scans of the test strips but could find no
way to get reasonable values, so I gave up (I'm planning to buy an Epson
2450 shortly, I'll wait until that day). 
My tests are therefore far from scientific, since I simply evaluate test
strips by comparing them with the strips I printed with OEM inks on an Epson
870 and on the same 1160 I now use with quads. And, of course, I printed a
few images, and all is fine...

Do you use a spectrophotometer to evaluate the printed GS-Stepwedge 
or do you use a flat bed scanner and PhotoShop or other image editor 
to check the percent value 0-100, (or pixel value 0-255, or density, 
or ??) of the patches?
