Hi Stephen 

As far as I know 
not only blender, renders from any 3d Software is going to suffer the same fate, when it comes to CMYK printing 
there is no software which renders to CMYK 

renders are very similar to photographs, they are stored internally in RGB and are not designed for CMYK 

like Bastien rightly said, exr would preserver all the data and hence might ease your conversion process. 

Your printing people might be able to help you in easy and right conversion process. 

and an addon to convert psd is again going to give you a PSD file in RGB colorspace not CMYK. So technically there is not going to be any difference

I’d have expected EXR to be the format of choice here (assuming - and 
hoping - photoshop does open that format, either natively or through 
plugins)? Being an HDR floating point format, it should allow for any 
kind of color conversion with (nearly) no loss of quality. And it can 
store several render passes separately, which can also be quite useful 
in post-process afaik…
