I believe its the Photo Quality Inkjet setting for the 1160, and the Heavyweight matte setting for the 1280. But sometime you get time, you should run a small test wedge using all the profiles so you can see their differences; there are big differences between them. The backlit film setting will most definitely give you the blackest blacks you can get, but on certain images (not all) you will see posterization.
