FAQs
What is the line width of this pen?
This Q-Connect Gel Rollerball Pen has an ultra-fine 0.3mm tip that writes a 0.5mm line width.
What ink color is this pack of pens?
This specific pack (KF21717) contains blue gel ink.
How many pens are in a pack?
This pack contains 10 gel pens.
Can I leave the cap off for a while?
It is recommended to always replace the cap immediately after use. Gel ink can dry out relatively quickly if exposed to air, which may affect the pen's performance.
Is the grip suitable for all users?
Yes, the rubberized grip is designed for comfort and control, and the pen's housing shape is round and suitable for ambidextrous use, benefiting both left and right-handed writers.
What is the product color?
The product color refers to the pen body and cap, which is multicolor, typically featuring a clear barrel with the ink color visible and possibly accents on the grip or clip.
What makes gel ink different from ballpoint ink?
Gel ink uses a water-based gel formula, which flows more smoothly and produces brighter, more vibrant colors than traditional oil-based ballpoint ink. It also tends to dry faster but can be more prone to smudging if not allowed to set.
Troubleshooting
Pen not writing or skipping
Ensure the cap has been removed and the pen is being held at a suitable angle. Check that the ink has not dried out by keeping the cap on securely when not in use. Try writing on a scrap piece of paper for a moment to re-start ink flow.
Ink smudging excessively
Allow the ink to dry completely on the paper before touching or highlighting over it. Gel ink can take slightly longer to dry than ballpoint ink. Consider using a different type of paper or highlighting pen if smudging is a persistent issue.
Tip feels scratchy on paper
The ultra-fine tip requires a lighter touch. Ensure you are writing on a smooth paper surface. Avoid applying excessive pressure, which can damage the tip and create a scratchy sensation.
Pen dried out despite cap being on
While the secure cap is designed to prevent drying, extreme environmental conditions or a faulty cap seal can contribute. Try gently re-inserting the pen into the cap or rolling the tip on a damp paper towel for a few seconds to rehydrate the ink.
