Either is acceptable, but black is more conservative.

There was a time when blue would not even show up on a copy.

Even though there are now color copiers?

I signed a document in black and then noticed the other party had signed in blue.

Guess the world won't collapse.

In the "old days" (early 90s or so) for international contracts, we would have each page initialed, xerox the initialed pages, then sign multiple xeroxed documents in blue ink. We trusted each other.

In the old days we used carbon paper and initialed 'cc'.
