Black ink is used in many ways. Particularly printing (i.e. documents) and pens. Some are used for art, like calligraphy. Take in for example, Japanese and Chinese art. Their symbols for words are all done in a brushed black ink. Some are used for maps, even in the older centuries. What about the most common thing read today? The newspaper!
