This assumes you have a calibrated scanner and a calibrated printer. I don't have an IT8.7 target or its equivalent to calibrate the scanner.
Perhaps I should start there.... heck I'll just try and match it by eye.

First, load the image of the original scan. Then on your floating toolbar click the left color box (foreground color), that will open the color picker box. Put your mouse pointer over the unknown color in the image and left click. Just make sure you don't have the "only web colors" checked. That color picker box will then show the RGB values as well as the hex value.
