I would recommend using the 2989 patch in Monaco Profiler. That is the  
largest target set that works with Monaco and has almost double the  
number of patches as the IT8.7/4. That is what I ALWAYS use when  
characterizing devices, as I get better overall gray balance and  
better shadow separation. However, I think you have to take Terry's  
advice into account, which is to say that if they are proofing on an  
"uncontrolled" inkjet which is not regularly calibrated, your profile  
wont be very smooth and also might not be valid next week.
