Here is link to screen grab of the Scribus driver window

 I was mistaken - there are options for bundled printer icc profiles (Epson R1800).
They reside in the HD/Library/Printers/ . . /ICCProfiles
but, there is no way easy of telling which is which.
Gimp diplays these with proper lables (see screen-grab below)

Also, is it not clear how to switch off colour management completely.

You set colour management policies in preferences, which may be toggled on/off 
from the status bar.
When active you can assign alternative "input" profiles from the Image tab of 
the Properties window. 

Destination (output) profiles are used for specific printer/inkset/media 
combinations. 
Higher-end inkjet printer use RGB (output) profiles which can be set from the 
printer driver.

AFAIK, you're not going to find application of ICC profiles in the printer 
dialog. This is in Preferences > Color Management.
