I just did a test with my HP 712C Deskjet. I printed a QSO on the back 
of a QSL card and
let it dry for a few minutes. I then ran it under a stream of water with 
no effect. I rubbed the
printing with my finger and, after a few rubs, I saw a bit of ink 
dissolving. The printing was
still clearly legible. Frankly, I was a bit surprised at the water 
resistance of the ink. This was
with an HP cartridge. Perhaps some of the aftermarket or refilled 
cartridges are not as good.

Another point in favor of the ink jets is that they need no warm up time 
as do the laser printers.
