If you are engaged in these sorts of procedures regularly you soon learn to use the tools that are available. I do and have designed many custom actions (macros) and droplets (stand alone batch actions) that reduce the time that I spend applying certain aspects of post processing to my images. There is no need to worry about colour if your digital image editing system is colour calibrated particularly if your digital image source is a digital camera with a known colour profile. If a digital image editing system is set up properly colour output will be far more accurate and repeatable than most any analogue system. If you have a reliable lab that can print digital files locally you will have "acceptable" prints back in no time.
