I didn't clarify my comment as well as I should have with the color munki software. It might print the 21-step chart on a half sheet of paper just fine, but there is no way to print and measure the ink separation files without using a whole lot of paper, especially if you start using more than 3 black/gray inks. Using one 1/2x8-inch line (of 21x1cm steps) is much nicer than using three lines of 1x8 inch strips.

When it comes time to upgrade my main work machine I will probably go down the disk emulation route, but with a couple old computers working perfectly well (knock knock) I haven't had the need—I think the time is coming, but I'm just not there yet. . .
