Digital BW, The Print

Mix warm and cool - I use my own curves but when I did use the UC curves I
found that around 35/65 warm/cool was close.  Personally I would print step
wedges of 100-0 warm-cool to 0-100 warm-cool in 10% increments.  Sepia is
sepia so you typically would not mix that.  Same with Coolse.  Others may
disagree but that is a good starting point.
