Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your M&G ExpertGel pens, keep the pens retracted when not in use to prevent the gel ink from drying out at the tip. Store pens horizontally in a desk organizer; this keeps the ink distribution balanced within the tube. While these pens work best on standard copier paper and notebook paper, test them on a small corner of specialized stationery to ensure no bleed-through occurs. No complex setup is required—simply remove the tip protector if present upon first use and you are ready to write. If the pen has been sitting unused for an extended period, a quick scribble on a scrap piece of paper will usually re-prime the ink flow instantly.
