You need a RIP with special, advanced capabilities to intercept a "named"
color like "Mark 101 CV" to funnel it through a LUT of some sort, as Marco
pointed out. Basic PostScript alone does not offer such a specialized color
management mechanism. And most PS3 RIPs don't even have that capability; not
Fuji CelebraNT v6+, not Prinergy v2+, not Harlequin v6+ -- well, you see the
picture. You need a RIP designed from the group up for proofing with ICC CMS
at its core, like BlackMagic or BEST or PosterShop or AbsoluteProof or ...

Then it's up to you to process that color any way you want to *outside* of
normal CMYK or RGB or Lab processing.
