Just as a follow-up, I did get the ink through without much problem. There was a 60-second delay as the X-ray screener had to figure out that it was less than 3 ounces (the bottle was 50 mL, and marked only in mL).

GIven the inconsistancy at various airports, I'd be prepared, though, to fork the ink container over. IOW, don't take your best ink along.
