Hi,

I am guessing here, but are you using JPG images to store the CMYK 
results?
If so, the problem is most likely, that there is no standard way to store 
CMYK values in a JGP. Some software products store Black as 0,0,0,0, 
(vanilla encoding) others as 255, 255, 255, 255 (chocolate encoding, using 
8 bit).
The closest thing to a standard is using vanilla encoding if an Adobe 
marker is present in the file, or chocolate otherwise. It is possible to 
produce the other encoding by changing the destination encoding thus 
correcting for your problem.

You don't say how you are displaying the image.  I suspect that it is an 
issue 
with your viewer.
