Depends on your state requirements. Some states allow only black stamps, some only black or blue and some allow any color as long as it's reproducible. Check your statutes. (FL allows you to sign the "notarial certificates with any color ink, but the notary seal must be affixed with black ink only.")
Typically, I prefer black stamps, but use blue ink for the signatures. Black stamps copy cleaner and crisper, but the blue signatures usually show "original" signatures.
