never heard of 'colour break' but a low res proof (sometimes used is a blue proof - dye sub i think? can't remember) is usually for text flow, image dropouts etc. it's to make sure the content hasn't altered from your machine to theirs and is a fast way to go.
they should still supply you with a bloody correct proof though? these days it's all digital prints (whereas 7 years ago it was all chromalum film proofs which cost the earth). make sure you request a correct proof before approving it for print and do a press-check if possible - take someone experienced if you can to find out what to look for.
printers will fuck you. not intentionally, they just don't see it the same way we do.
