The Spyder2 and Spyder3 are emissive measurement devices; since your  
prints won't be emitting any light, you would need a reflective device  
for measuring print output. That's what Spyder3Print and Spyder3Print  
SR devices are for. I'm not sure that a densitometer is really the  
critical device; but if you want density values, you can use the  
S3Print devices to create density values. Lab values are actually more  
useful, but there are still some people (and a few applications)  
around that use Density. The S3Print devices produce both types of  
values.
