Actually,  I've already tried that.  Since I only need about a tablespoon full
of ink for my entire synth, I was trying to get someone to sell me a small
amount.  Due to OSHA regulations or something like that, no one would do it.
One guy at a sign shop told me it was impossible for me to buy anywhere because
it was "too hazardous."  So as soon as I found a place that sold the stuff I
just bought an entire quart.  The print supply warehouses seem to only like to
sell wholesale to large corporations.  At least DickBlick.com had it in stock
and didn't mind selling it to me.

I havn't recieved my shipment yet, but I'll post my results here after I've
tried some printing.
