A good full service dry cleaner should be able to easily remove ink stains or other stains from the clothing you bring them as long as you get the clothing to the dry cleaner in time before the ink stain sets in to much.

If you do get ink stains on your clothing you can use some nail polish remover or some rubbing alcohol to remove the ink stain.

Dab some nail polish remover or rubbing alcohol around the ink stain and then dab some rubbing alcohol or the nail polish remover onto the ink stain directly and use a paper towel underneath the clothing where the stain is because the ink stain should transfer from the clothing to the paper towel.

It may take a few tries of the rubbing alcohol or the nail polish remover but the ink stain should come out and then you can just run the clothing through a wash cycle if the clothing doesn't require dry cleaning.

But if you do take the clothing to a good dry cleaner they can usually remove the ink stains.
