General comment
Ink is a complex mixture used for written communication and art. It is made by combining pigments, dyes, solvents, and additives to produce vibrant, long-lasting prints. The base ingredient of printer ink is usually an oil, such as linseed oil, soybean oil, or a petroleum distillate. Carbon black and varnish are typically combined to make basic black ink. The production, usage, and disposal of ink have environmental impacts. The HP Ink program aims to streamline printing workflows and office tasks.
