Step 1
First I should say that Some traces of an ink stain may be left behind depending on the color of your carpet vs. the color of the spilled ink.
First you will need a Q-tip or toothbrush dipped in alcohol. Very, very carefully blot the stain only. Be very careful not to spread the stain out. Blot with the Q-tip (or toothbrush)then blot with a clean paper towel. Try to get as deep into the carpet fibers as you can without spreading the stain out. This is because the alcohol will make the ink "bleed". You will have to repeat this process over and over again to fade the stain as much as possible. -
Step 2
When the remaining stain is dry (You may have to wait 24 hours) Rince it very carefully with water. Blot again.

Step 3
Using a good carpet cleaner (like Austin's) blot and blot dry again. When doing this be sure to use hot tap water to blot. If the stain has not faded enough Try an ink removing product found on the web like www.forceoutproducts.com
