Like Diana, and others, I am looking for inkjet ink which will
survive laboratory storage and archival conditions, and have yet to
find an ink which will not dissolve in ethanol. However, for those
who may be interested, I came across this website:
http://www.iafadp.org/technical/index.html about the archival
qualities of inkjet inks and paper which, whilst slightly tangential
to the question, may be of interest. You can download a pdf file with
details of tests at:

Hope this helps

Paul
