There is stuff you can buy I think at Wal-Mart or an auto store. I had ink on my tan leather seat and I used this stuff that was similiar in consistancy to like...wax maybe, like after you blow out a candle and it is halfway dry again. Anyways, i didnt think it was working and later I looked over and the ink ws gone. You can also use alcohol but it may discolor you leather.
Contrary to what that guy up there says it IS possible but you have to find the right product. I think mine came with a little cloth to rub it on too. I will look online to see what I can find.

The fresher the ink the easier it will be but it does depend on the type of leather you have.
If it is a pigment leather you can sometimes find an ink stick which will work successfully, if not it is a job for a technician as you will need to use solvents which may remove the finish and the pigment and will then need replacing.
Hairspray can sometimes work but can also make the matter worse so proceed with caution.
If the leather is an aniline style then you will be unable to get the ink out with anything as it will have soaked into the leather. It may dissipate over time, but anything you try will only make the matter worse.

well.... an aerosol hairspray and paper towels might work - but test on non-show area first.
