You can do what I call split toning with the variable-tone inksets.  One
image that I've used cool and warm toned inks is at
http://home1.gte.net/res0a2zt/Whalers.html .

With non-feathered selections you can apply one curve in one area, and a
second curve in the inverse selection area.  With feathered selections, I've
had better luck making a duplicate image, applying one curve to each, and
then cloning over from one to the other in one 100% sweep.
