MIS VM inkset supports the 1270.  See 
http://www.inksupply.com/index.cfm?source=html/workflow_roark.html

The MIS UT 1 inkset was an upgrade of the VM inkset and might be fine on the
1270, but I have not seen it.

The UT2 inkset, which was made for the 1280, will run on the 1270 if you use
a 1280 driver (easy with the PC, apparently not feasible with the Mac).
I've seen good results on matte paper.  I was less impressed with the glossy
1270-UT2 prints I saw.
