Is it correct that this ink is oil based? null

Contact HP at www.hp.com/go/learnaboutsupplies to get information about the ink, ink volume and page yield. I produce a large volume of documents and find the ink yield to be excellent.

Water based inks, both pigment and dye, will not mix with white spirit/mineral spirits/mineral turpentine, but mix readily with water. Oil based inks will not mix with water but mix readily with white spirit/mineral spirits/mineral turpentine. Until a few years ago, the key advantages of dye-based inks was a wider color range and lower cost while its disadvantages were that it was water soluble—a single drop of water could ruin a print—and that prints would fade faster. Pigmented inks, conversely, lasted longer and more water-resistant, but had less color depth and were more expensive. Today, however, there is little difference between current dye-based and pigmented inks, with the slight edge going to pigmented inks. Steady improvements in the inks’ formulas have addressed the shortcomings of both types, and current generation inks produced by name-brand manufacturers are generally claimed to be fade-resistant to last a lifetime when used with the recommended paper. Generally, pigment inks are marketed towards pro users, while lower-cost dye-based inks are marketed towards enthusiasts. Black and white photographers tend to prefer pigmented inks. However, a casual look at side-by-side prints will reveal only subtle differences that may only be appreciated by professional and serious amateur photographers. Even so, many pro printers are more than satisfied with dye-based prints.

No it’s not oil based ink, HP uses spirit based ink in the paintjet
