Here's a quote from the MIS website (www.inksupply.com) instructions for 
the Roark workflow:

"1. Edit the image in grayscale mode and convert the mode to RGB only for 
printing and after saving the g/s file.

"2. Load and apply the desired Image Adjustment Curve. (Image, Adjust, 
Curves, Load, vmqxx, Load, OK)

"When a curve is applied, the image will turn nice bright colors, but these 
are false colors. The image is no longer WYSIWYG. This is for printing 
only, and should not be saved over the good grayscale working file. Do not 
attempt to edit the image once the curve has been applied."
