Patent number: 8492456Abstract: The present invention provides ink compositions for ink-jet printing. The ink compositions comprise by weight from about 0.1 to 5% by weight of a water-soluble polyurethane; from about 0.1 to 15% by weight of a 1,2-alkyldiol having 5-9 carbon atoms; and from about 0.5 to 6% by weight of a pigment. The present invention also provides a process for printing an image on a print medium that comprises applying an inventive ink composition thereto by means of an ink-jet printer. The present invention further provides ink-jet cartridges containing inventive ink compositions.Type: GrantFiled: February 9, 2004Date of Patent: July 23, 2013Assignee: Hewlett-Packard Development Company, L.P.Inventors: Xiaohe Chen, George M. Sarkisian
