Abstract: A method of preparing a solid ink composition, comprising the steps of: reacting 15-25 parts by weight of base oil including coconut oil, palm oil and castor oil and 40-60 parts by weight of aliphatic organic acid of 10 to 20 carbon atoms with 7-15 parts by weight of a caustic soda solution (concentration: 40%) to saponify the base oil and to change the aliphatic organic acid into sodium salt thereof; mixing 3-10 by weight of glycerin, 10-20 by weight of ethanol, 0.1-1.0 by weight of a dye and 1-10 by weight of silica with the reaction product and then melting the mixture at 70-80° C.; and cooling the molten mixture. The solid ink composition prepared by the method is very transparent, and has excellent miscibility and stability because it is easily mixed with a water-soluble dye or a water-soluble fluorescent dye.
