2) CS6 and CC both leave out ICCs in the print dialog that they deem not appropriate for
how you are printing. So if you are printing to an RGB driver (all the Epson drivers) you
will not see any grayscale ICCs. You will see the profiles in Convert to Profile though so
it's not that they are not found.
QTR grayscale ICCs can easily be re-made as RGB ones and they will show up.
BUT -- what good are they? QTR does not work as a driver and you can't access
Epson's ABW when using a profile.

I was working on a black and white print and wanted to use a custom .icc file I made quite a while ago, before I adopted Adobe CC and began using CS6. When I went to the printer set up screen I could not find the .icc I wanted to use. I keep my .iccs in the folder C>windows>system32>spool>drivers>color. I checked this folder and did not see the .icc I was looking for. I had a copy squirreled away in another folder and moved a copy to the .icc folder. I closed and reopened CS6.
The .icc still will not come up in the CS6 printer .icc selection box. Thinking that perhaps CS6 uses a different folder, I did computer-wide search on a couple of obscure .iccs, from the print screen drop down, that I know I did not create, to see what folder they were in. The computer search could not find them, which was odd. I can't find any indication in the Photoshop preferences as to where the .iccs should go and a search of Adobe did not come up with a useful answer.
I had a similar problem a year ago when I discovered that Lightroom will not detect non-RGB iccs. I'm 99% certain that the .icc I am looking for is not an RGB .icc as it was made before I had Lr and at that time I did not use the RGB .icc create tool in QTR. So, I have two questions:
1. What is the correct folder to put .icc files into for use with CC-CS6?
2. Is CC-CS6 able to use non-RGB .iccs?
