As a printed book instead of a manuscript, the print is all uniform and of a single color.  There are no incipits or colored ink of any type throughout the book.  In fact, the little scroll work located at the beginning of each Canto and book (see the picture above)  and the end of each section (see the picture below) is done in the same ink as the rest of the print.  The only other scroll work is around the initial letter of a new canto but no color.  Other than the scroll work, no decorations, pictures or drawings exist in the book.
