Yes, you can still print carbon warm when the sepia is replaced with LC.
The current UT7 carbon curve uses none of the Y-position sepia ink, except
to turn on the black.  Now, with the LC in the Y also, you'll be able to
have a curves set that has 2 light carbon jets firing, thus increasing the
smoothness.  I made one such curve for EEM.  If it's not posted I'll send it
to you off list.
