I imagine he's going to want small quantities (less than thousands at a time) of full color stuff, so Pages plus a local digital printer should suit him just fine.
Assuming that it's a 4-color job, I doubt that any printer worth his ink would take a Pages doc for such a small job. Too much BS involved to make it suitable for a run and too little reward.
Some rip-off place would probably run it off a color copier and charge him a 400% markup. Maybe he'd be happy with that.
But if the guy plans on printing the stuff himself... maybe duplicating small runs on a color copier... then Pages'll probably do fine.
Or maybe he could make a mockup in Pages and then hand it off to a printer with a minimum-wage slave who'll knock it off in a real DTP app for him.
