I recall the ink was thicker and more oily than modern inkjet ink,

Yup, about five years ago, I gave away mine on the Vintage Computer forum. It had very little mileage on it, mostly because of the mess. There are stamp pad inkers that use a very fine mesh that allows the ink to seep through gradually. I've re-inked ribbons that way with better success than with the Mac Inker (which I believe is still being offered--"Computer Friends" I think is the outfit).

Then there's the old WD-40 and plastic bag trick...
