Actually a spectrometer, if I had one, would give much more information.

Unfortunately, with subtractive color systems it's not possible to know,
given the colors of the inks, what the colors of the mixtures will be.
You need the whole spectrograph in order to accurately predict this.  I don't
have that information.
