Is it possible to get Soy or Vegetable ink for computer ink cartridge refills...?

...as an environmentally friendly alternative to normal ink?





If so, where in the UK?|||not sure|||It doesn%26#039;t dry fast enough, so no. Not to say that someone won%26#039;t come up with a formula that works, but not now.





Soy ink is mostly used in newsprint which is not that high quality of ink to start with. The big presses have dryers and a bit of time on the rollers before it is subjected to things that might smear it. Newsprint will also come off on your hands a little as I am sure you noticed.





The same is not true on a little ink jet printer. You have to get ink that will spray very fine particals and then dry very quickly. This is not going to be done by anything that isn%26#039;t very volitile.|||Most ink jet inks are vegetable colour based already. I know the HP uses this types of inks. It is a matter of what brand of printer you have as well. Some refill places should be able to tell you if their inks are vegetable dye based or not.|||www.keepmedia.com
