The simple answer to this is: Qimage is able to process the images correctly.

If you have Qimage set up with Colour Management on, a Monitor and Printer Profile set, the driver set for "No Colour Adjustment" (or equivalent), then the prints and screen views will be Colour Managed according to the profile of each image.
The other condition required is that the image has the profile embedded (preferred) or tagged as part of the Exif data. Or, has been assigned in the Qimage Colour Management set-up window.
In other words, Qimage is "told" what the image profiles are.

It will color manage them individually like it should.

Beyond that Qimage even allows you to give them an individual output profile or rendering if you right click on the image in the preview window and select Custom Color Management Selection.
