David,

Warm inks (beyond carbon) are just mixing colored pigments into the cabon
ink.
There is nothing magic about these black and white inksets they are just
carbon + coloured pigments, ideally ones that fade at the same rate.

You can do the equivalent yourself -  at the extreme its called color
printing :)
Epson ABW mode will mix in some color for you. If you want more then just go
full blown color.
