Well, one surefire way to find out if the printer is managed as CMYK is to print a Visual IT8.7 target and look at the CMYK (especially black) ramps under a loupe. If they are all single color, then you’ve got a CMYK managed device and driver. It the driver is Postscript it will use CMYK. If its not, RGB will be the mode to profile in. On Windows you sometimes have the choice of either driver (PS or PCL) and can use whichever you think makes sense for your workflow.

I'm not sure that Ken's original assumption about the handling of CMYK files by his copier is valid.
