Contains alcohol, anti-freeze and an acid that may etch aluminum.

A lot of the industrial ink jet printers don't use an ink at all; many are 
polymers.  Think toner.

Try acetone, toluene or MEK (methyl ethyl ketone).  All are solvents that will  
attack various plastics but not etch aluminum.  The really nasty heavy-duty 
paint removers are generous with the MEK.
