The 1280 UT inks include a warm, pure carbon channel. If that carbon is not warm enough, the UT2 yellow position ink is a sepia mix. It'll take you well beyond the warmth of the pure carbon. If you don't want to print neutral at all and want simple and very smooth warm prints, with all channels firing to get the best smoothness, the UT-R2 inkset for the 220 is actually appropriate for all hextone epson printers. You could load the R2-warm (pure carbon) inks into the 1280 and they should print reasonably well with the driver set to Color Controls. Again, if that carbon was not warm enough, a UT2 sepia ink in the yellow position could act as a toner to reach warmer. So, there are a number of options that can be used on the 1280 to achieve very warm prints. Hope this helps.
