Digital BW, The Print

ABW is a Same as Source workflow.  The ICC profile Carl was referring to is
a QTR ICC profile which manages luminance only.  So you profile AB&W's
luminance profile and use this to manage the luminance compression but don't
colour manage hue.  Consider it a semi-colour-managed workflow.
