A non-aqueous ink-jet ink composition contains at least a pigment, a
solvent, and a dispersing agent. The non-aqueous ink-jet ink composition
further contains a chelating agent, which is soluble in the solvent. The
chelating agent may be a crown ether and/or a cryptand, which acts as a
neutral carrier. Alternatively, the chelating agent may be at least one
chelating agent acting as an ionic carrier, which is selected from the
group consisting of GEDTA, BAPTA, and DTPA. The non-aqueous ink-jet ink
composition has good storage stability and good jetting-out performance
through suppression of occurrence of sediments due to a change with the
passage of time.
