Shredded Paper Mulch Questions

Hi

I recently bought a paper shredder and have been shredding newspapers for mulch in the flower beds. I'm comfortable about using this mulch for the flowers but wonder if it would be OK for the vegetable garden too. Is there lead in the ink? What about flyers etc. that use coloured ink? What about the glossy coloured flyers? Your input would be appreciated.

Thanks

Geo
