Whenever I have to do test prints to check for color, I put many small images on one page, and then tweak the color of each one individually. I make notes as to what I tweaked in Photoshop (reduce contrast by 10, change the color balance to less red by 20, for example.)
Then I print out the page with the eight or nine small, different-colored versions of my image and pick the one that looks best. Because I took notes on what I changed in each of the color tests, I can replicate it when I do my full page print. Saves me a lot of ink and paper.
Often my color tests are so awful looking (until I get it right) that I'd never want anyone else to see them -- let alone sell them!
