I'm not sure what kind of "magic" they use but here is what the 
manual says:  "Equal channel RGB images with colored highlights can 
be printed using our grayscale technology for the neutral portions, 
while the color portions use our color profiles.  The Colorize B/W 
field becomes active when you choose a Gray profile in the 
Printer/Paper field.  With a gray profile chosen, then choosing a 
color profile in the Colorize B/W field will allow you to use 
ImagePrint's colorize feature.  This feature will cause the black and 
white areas of the print to be output using the Gray profile, while 
the color areas will be printed using the color profile selected in 
the Colorize B/W field."

You end up using two profiles, one for black and white and one for 
color.  It does work but I don't know how.
