An oil based ink composition for inkjet printer comprising colored resin particles obtained by dispersion polymerization of a monofunctional polymerizable monomer (A) and a macromonomer (M) copolymerizable with the monomer (A) with coloring component fine particles comprising a surface-treated coloring agent, which are dispersed in a non-aqueous solvent having a dielectric constant of from 1.5 to 20 and a surface tension of from 15 to 60 mN/m at 25 C., as seed particles, in the presence of a dispersion stabilizer (P) soluble in the non-aqueous solvent and a polymerization initiator.
