I believe "Colorant" is the term used in the MIB.

Subject: [MFD] Re: [IPP] Question: What is the generic term for both toner
and ink?
Glen,
Don't know if this will be helpful, but for printer-state-reasons the
generic term we use is "marker supply" for any consumable other than toner.
Not particularly user-friendly.
For CUPS we translate marker-supply-low/empty to ink and toner-low/empty to
toner. That leaves out wax-based printers, of course...
