Printer cartridges can be used at home and in the office, but stains caused by a leaking cartridge may be difficult to remove from clothing and carpets. Here are a few thoroughly tested options for remove ink stains caused by printer cartridges.

Carpet Stains: The important thing to remember when treating any type of stain is to treat it as quickly as possible. If an ink stain is allowed to dry, it'll be much harder to remove. If you have lots of ink on the carpet, the residue ought to be scraped away removing ink stains by hand before treating the stain. A piece of cardboard or a plastic ruler is ideal for this. The area should then be treated with rubbing alcohol, if this is available. The alcohol should first be applied to a cloth or towel after which the stained area of carpet should be gently dabbed with the cloth to dissolve the blemish. The region should always be dabbed, instead of rubbed, since the motion of rubbing will spread further.

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