I'm having difficulty printing spot separations. My document contains 1 process (black) and 1 spot colour (and also greyscale images). When I attempt to print the sep's the only options available in the print output are Composite RGB and Composite Greyscale. I've done a pre-flight which has come up fine (no RGB) and checked the images.

Any suggestions?
 
You are trying to print to a non-postscript printer, so you do not have the options that you expect.

You should be able to print Postscript files as separations for PDF creation in Distiller and print those pdfs.

Go to Print and select Postcript file. Set the PPD to Adobe pdf. Go to Output on the print window and select Separations in the color menu.
