Printer cartridges are generally used at home and at work, but stains caused by a leaking cartridge could be difficult to remove from clothing and carpets. Below are a few proven methods for remove ink stains brought on by printer cartridges.

Carpet Stains: The biggest thing to remember when treating any type of stain is to address it as soon as possible. If an ink stain is allowed to dry, it will likely be much harder to remove. When there is plenty of ink on the carpet, the residue ought to be scraped away removing ink stains manually before treating the stain. A bit of cardboard or a plastic ruler is ideal for this. The region should then be treated with rubbing alcohol, if that is available. The alcohol should first be employed to a cloth or towel after which the stained section of carpet should be gently dabbed with the cloth to dissolve the blemish. The region must always be dabbed, rather than rubbed, while the motion of rubbing will spread further.

If there is no rubbing alcohol available, a combination of carpet-safe detergent and water could be applied to the region, using the same method as described above. Washing up liquid or soap is ideal, since it is unlikely to damage the carpet. The region should be dabbed until you can forget ink is coming away on the cloth. Then, a clean towel, cloth or paper towel should be used to blot the area dry, continuing with new towels if ink remains appearing out of the carpet.
