Which color profiles should I use for RGB -> CMYK conversion

In the past, I got CMYK->RGB conversion to work, but as it turns out our print dept. actually wants the opposite. It seems that simply reversing the color profiles I had been using for the opposite procedure seems not to work. Which profiles do I need, and can anyone provide links to the relevant files? (Profile files? Seems redundant)

I still haven't had any luck doing RGB to CMYK. The icc profiles I used for CMYK to RGB don't work in the opposite direction. Anything that is dark or near black in RGB ends up being pale (no K channel) in CMYK. I assume that the conversion isn't reversible, and needs different profiles. If so, which are suitable, and where can they be found?
