Anyone know if there's any kind of eraser to erase ink from printed
paper, not liquid based, but a dry one,
or any ideas on how to remove ink from a printed paper?
thanks!
As Art says, there is no way to do this because of the way that paper and
ink interract.
I note that you say no to a liquid based means; but if the original is
text only you could carefully cover the part of the text you don't want
with liquid paper and photocopy the result. With very great care you may
be able to do this with an image also depending on whether the
photocopying is going to have high enough quality for you.

Not true. We don't know a dry process, but we do know a wet one that works
for "may" scenarios. The trouble is, to post something like this delivers
the information to those who might use it for harmful purposes.
I really can't believe that you think that a piece of simple information that
almost anybody could have worked out for themselves is dangerous.
We will be banning the sale of motor vehicles next because they can be used as
get away cars or banning the sale of household detergents because they can be
used to poison someone!
I can think of many reasons why someone would want to do what the poster wants
and nearly all of those things are legal and reasonable.

Not only that, but where does one think the best,
simplest information on how to remove ink from
paper comes? Forgers and counterfeiters likely
know and use the best procedures. Want to know
how do something easily and cheaply? Ask a crook!
Keeping information out of the bad boys hands is
silly, they probably produced the info.

Uh, but people still lock the doors to their homes and cars.
Locking doors has nothing to do with providing
information.

The idea is to make it a little harder for those contemplating bad things.
That may be the idea and such thoughts are often
projected by people with good intentions.
However, the bad guys already no more about these
things than most law abiding people.
