Unfortunately inkjst printer cartridges are only made in 3 colour, red, blue and cyan, gold ink is tricky, at Staple and other business equipment stores you can purchase gold pen marker in thin and wide tips.





The reason is the flakes of gold dust in gold paints and nailpolishes have to be shaken, it settles to the bottom and the heat that the inkjet porduces to spray the ink colours would clog everytime you used it and need constant cleaning.Can I print in gold ink on an inkjet printer?

The standard ink jet printer is unable to handle a gold suspension, the particulate is too large and will end up clogging the heads.





you can print in a gold tone, but it will lack the shimmer.
