It means switching LLK for a Black. I can understand the blocking of the 
alternative black channel in either gloss or matte mode but I presume 
the LLK is still seen as available for the GCR-Black generation in the 
color engine's tonal curves. Maybe the gloss and matte driver 
descriptions of a 4000 or 7600 or could be used instead then but in my 
view this isn't simple.
