Abstract: Compositions, systems, and methods of printing an ink-jet image are provided. The composition can include a liquid vehicle including water, a liquid vehicle having from 5 wt % to 35 wt % of total organic solvent content; from 1 wt % to 6 wt % of acid-functionalized pigment solids; and from 0.001 wt % to 6 wt % of styrene-maleic anhydride copolymer, said styrene-maleic anhydride copolymer having a weight average molecular weight from about 400 Mw to 15,000 Mw.

Abstract: An ink for use in combination with an ink-jet printer comprises a mixture including a colorant, a liquid vehicle comprising 1,6-hexanediol and 1,5-pentanediol in a ratio in the range of 1:4 (wt/wt) to 4:1 (wt/wt), and/or an amount of imidazole in the range of 0.1 wt % to 6 wt %, and potentially provides at least one of the following enhancements to the ink improved print quality, increased decap time, pen reliability, environmental robustness of ink in pen, environmental robustness of printed ink on media, and aid in maintaining the pH of the ink in a desired range.

Abstract: An ink-jet ink comprises an aqueous liquid vehicle, at least 1% by weight colorant; and a black-to-color bleed control enhancing amount of magnesium sulfate or hydrate thereof.
