Re: Ink Base update (was Eboni-6 tones, etc.)

I have found the formula of Simple Green here:

Do not worry about the colorant and fragrance. We have used in an R220
for about 8 months an ink diluted with a base made with automotive
antifreeze (97.5 % ethylene glycol and the rest is unknown) with a
blue colorant. Worked perfectly and could not see any effect of the
colorant on the paper. The printer is still OK.

    I worry a bit about the green colorant and materials that make the
    fragrance.
