I get what, to my eyes, is a better sepia print by not blending two
different curves and instead using the sepia curve alone.  If that's too
strong then I switch to warm alone and if that's still too strong then I
blend a little cold with the warm. I don't know which different inks in
which different proportions are used for "sepia" and "warm" but there
doesn't seem to be a huge difference between them, sepia looks to me just
like a warmer version of warm, at least on EEM.

There are sepia curves too.  So put a cold (or even warm) curve in the first
position and the
sepia one in the second position and try different mix %'s.

Though I'm not sure how well they match a darkroom sepia which is what I
presume you
are referring to.

Also on the QTR group we are in the midst of a discussion on editing curves
to get the
color that you want, very cold black in my case.
