Comment on PRINT to Finish... if that means you printed the target and immediately measured it you may want to consider waiting at least 3-4 hrs and better yet overnight... some inks colors set and change slightly as they dry - depending on ink/paper combo it can be pretty dramatic.
Fortunately this is a remediable mistake: unless you damage or destroy your target print, you can measure it again the next day, and compare the results. Our new mesaurement file averaging function does not yet have a compare option, but I would hope to add that at some point... currently I export the Lab values from both measurement sets, paste those into Excel, and put in formuli to compare one to the other. Ultrachromes perform very well in such tests, dye inks are much more problematic...
