MATLAB: Do I get errors when trying to view a PostScript file which has been exported with CMYK colors

cmykepsexportghostviewMATLABpostscriptprint

I export my MATLAB figure to a PostScript file using CMYK colors, with the following command:
print -cmyk -dpsc2 filename.ps
When I try to view the exported PostScript file using GhostView, I get the following error:
