Try using hair spray in a pump bottle. Start on a small spot, spray it good, let it sit then wipe it off with a paper towel. I used this on my daughters white leather coat and it seemed to work pretty good.

Your best bet is to try to get the ink liquified and blot it off. Leather is very porous... sometimes if the stain is liquid and thin enough, it will just be absorbed and not be visible, but the trick is getting the ink to dissolve. Best ideas are the same as getting ink stains out of a shirt or blouse... The usual method is to use liquid detergent or stain remover full strength... rub it on gently and let it sit for an hour and then see if the ink lifts off with a cloth. If that doesn't work, try to saturate the spot with a cheap hair spray and see if that dissolves the ink. You can also try alcohol, acetone, or a non-oily nail polish remover. Whatever you do, apply to a small test spot before trying on the whole couch so your problem doesn't go from bad to worse. Good luck.

Put some rubbing alcohol on a cotton ball or paper towel and wipe the item with it. Rubbing alcohol will take ink off of just about anything.

Lots of hairspray to dampen and loosen and a paper towel to immediately wipe off.

The hair spray and alcohol are good ideas if that doesn't work try DE-SOLV-IT....make sure to test a spot where it doesn't show.
