Troubleshooting

Ink flow is inconsistent or pen skips.

Clean the nib and feed with lukewarm water. Ensure the ink cartridge or converter is properly seated. Use a different ink or try a more lubricated ink if necessary.

Ink dries out quickly.

Make sure the pen cap is securely closed. Try the 'Slip and Seal' cap feature by pushing the cap until it seals tightly. If the problem persists, clean the nib and feed and consider storing the pen horizontally.
