Pantone colour is opten used as a certain type of ink for postcard printing. Other than that, most commonly, postcards are printed on normal printer paper, with normal ink.

Reason: the choice of ink or ink itself has quality problems; The ink is too fast so that the printing pattern or line is not clear, the pattern is incomplete or the line is broken; The viscosity of the ink is too high, and the pattern is incomplete or the line is broken when printing.The printing plate blocking phenomenon affects the normal ink; Insufficient or uneven pressure of scraper during printing results in uneven ink; The printing surface of the substrate is uneven.Solution: replace the appropriate ink; Use slower drying solvent to prepare ink; Dilute ink or add the thixotropic agent to reduce viscosity; Correct choice of slow dry solvent dilution ink, and pay attention to the printing screen ink performance;Increase the force of the scraper when printing, and pay attention to the uniformity of the scraping force; Processing substrate surface (such as printing coarse grain substrate can first use up oil or other materials before printing).
The ink used for label printing depends on the type of printing being done and who is doing it. For at home use it is the typical printer ink. Commercially it may be dye based, a UV cured ink, thermochromic ink, or an ultraviolet ink just to name a few.

What type of printer ink is used depends on whether the printing is done by laser or ink-jet. The inkjet cartridge is water based, so the ink itself is in liquid form. With laser jets, the ink particles are solid. When printing with a laser ink cartridge, the dry ink particles are mixed with toner, and then thermally infused on the paper. Both printer ink types can print a high quality resolution and the price difference is nominal for normal range print jobs or for the individual. Laser ink cartridges are a more expensive choice for very high volume printing.
It depends on how often you will be printing things out and what you are printing. If you are printing pictures, then expect to replace your ink cartridges fairly regularly.
You can of course get both color and black ink, but all inks also come in normal or high-capacity. Consider how much you use. If you're printing photos consider getting photo ink.
"to save ink during printing do not print all the little stuff. just print what you are really after printing, and it is better to use black and white ink because there is more of it."
