That's one of the problems. "Soybean" inks have only 10% or so soybean oil.
The rest is petroleum.
And most colored inks are still made with heavy metals- and all papers are
now copying "USA Today"
and putting color on most pages.

The other problem is it tends to make paper mache when wet. What's needed to
keep the contents of
the toilet aerobic (as much as possible) is a carbon source that doesn't
stick together or mat.
