How much recycled plastic is used in the pen?

Troubleshooting

Pen does not write or skips inconsistently.

Ensure the tip is extended. Check if the ink cartridge is properly seated. If the pen has been stored for a long time, gently scribble on a scrap piece of paper to re-establish ink flow. Consider replacing the ink cartridge if it is empty or old.

Ink is smudging excessively.

Allow a few extra seconds for the gel ink to dry on the paper, especially on smoother surfaces. Ensure you are not pressing too hard while writing. If smudging persists, consider using a different paper type or a Pilot pen with a finer tip size.

The click mechanism feels stiff or does not engage properly.

Ensure the pen barrel is fully screwed together. Check for any debris obstructing the click mechanism. If the issue persists, the internal mechanism may be damaged, and the pen might need replacement.
