It is a dye. I've got some red here, says "FD&C Reds 40 and 3, adn
Propylparaben (as a preservative)".
FD&C Red 40 and 3 are mentioned specifically on several official sites
as "dyes, colorants" including this one:

I think the next one I'm using only isopropyl alcohol to soak.
These are from thrift stores so I have no idea how long they sat. It
is unlikely any experimental inks were used in them.
Ingredients listed on one of my cartridges:
Glycerine
Ethylene Glycol
Isopropyl Alcohol
