Troubleshooting

Pen not writing or skipping

Ensure the cap was properly replaced after last use. Try scribbling on a scrap piece of paper to restart ink flow. If the issue persists, the ink may be depleted.

Ink smudging excessively

Allow a few moments for the ink to dry completely before touching or handling the written surface. Ensure you are not applying excessive pressure while writing, which can lead to heavier ink laydown.

Ink flow seems inconsistent

Check for any debris on the pen tip. Store the pen tip-down when not in use to encourage consistent ink flow.
