Yes, it is compatible with Cross fountain pen converters if you prefer to use bottled ink rather than cartridges.
The Cross Calais is covered by a lifetime mechanical guarantee, which addresses issues with the pen's function rather than aesthetic wear.
Yes, you can either replace the used cartridges with new ones or use a converter to refill from a bottle.
Store the pen in the provided gift box or a pen case when not in use, ensuring the cap is snapped on tightly to keep the nib from drying.
It is recommended to use genuine Cross brand cartridges to ensure proper ink flow and prevent clogging of the feed system.
Ensure the cartridge is fully seated and the pen has been left nib-down for a few minutes to prime the feed.
Flush the nib assembly with room-temperature water to clear potential dried ink or paper fibers.
Use a soft microfiber cloth to wipe the polished chrome finish to restore its original luster.
To begin using your Cross Calais, insert the provided cartridge firmly into the section until you feel it click. Allow a few minutes for the ink to reach the nib before starting. To maintain the pen, keep the cap securely closed when not in use to prevent ink dry-out. Clean the nib assembly periodically by flushing it with cool water if you intend to switch ink colors or if the pen has been sitting unused for an extended period. Use a soft, lint-free cloth to buff the polished chrome finish and remove oils or fingerprints.
