Colour printers (the people not the machinery) have for decades been getting
accurate colour balance from negatives in the absence of reference targets
such as grey cards or colour targets.  Quite simply you can't tell a client
to go away just because their negatives lack those things.  You do the job
as well as you can, and there ARE methods to zero in on correct colour by
considering the casts in shadows and diffuse highlights in conjunction with
the major mid-tonal areas.
