For highest accuracy use a RIP which supports Lab input.
1) choose sample color from Illustrator CC, selecting Lab mode
2) note the Lab values
3) print the color with colorimetric rendering
4) download Profile Maker from the Xrite web site (free)
5) install the Color Picker module
6) read the printed swatch
7) compare the achieved Lab match with the desired values
