I didn't find exact numbers for you.  Your initial readings in the last post
were close, but the K was a bit low, and the C a bit high.  As to the
warmness, again, I can't give you a better description than that the
original targets were the same.

I'm not sure what your goals are here.  The UT-FS is actually an old density
distribution that is not optimized for modern printers.  The lightest and
second lightest inks are very close, and leave too much of a gap to the
C-position dark gray, in my view. If you're goal is to have a smoother
inkset than the UT2, I'd pull the sepia and put FS-Y there. 

OF course, now that the UT-3D inkset appears to be within what PrintFIXPro
can profile, an alternative that is looking very interesting is to put the
3D inkset in the 1280 and use profiling software to control it.
