INK or INKS
What is the plural form of "INK"? can I say INKS?

For example, in this sentence can I use INKS instead of INK?

I’d like to have more INKS but unfortunately, in my country, good quality INKS are not easy to find and the ones available are quite expensive.

Thanks so much!

Answer

If indeed you want inks, then your sentence is perfect. 
Inks in this case means different types of ink, perhaps different colours.
