Product Information
Full details
The 6-Colour Pen featuring a Bluey design is an ideal tool for young students, artists, and fans of the series who want a versatile writing instrument for schoolwork, note-taking, and creative projects. By integrating six distinct ink colours into a single, compact barrel, this pen eliminates the need to carry multiple items, offering seamless transitions between shades for vibrant artwork. While it is excellent for colour-coding and sketching, users should note that the retractable mechanism requires gentle handling to ensure the internal springs remain aligned over extended use.

FAQs
Does this pen require refills?
This pen is designed as a single unit and does not support individual ink refills once the reservoirs are depleted.
Can I use multiple colours at once?
No, the internal mechanism is designed to support only one active ink colour at a time.
Is the ink washable?
The ink is standard ballpoint ink; while it may wash out of some fabrics with prompt treatment, it should be treated as permanent on porous surfaces.
What age group is this pen intended for?
It is suitable for school-aged children, though young children should be supervised to avoid potential small parts if damaged.
How do I ensure the pen lasts as long as possible?
Always retract the tip after use and avoid dropping the pen, as impact can damage the delicate internal spring mechanism.
Troubleshooting
A tab will not stay pushed down
Ensure that any other tab currently engaged is fully released before attempting to select a new colour.
Ink flow is intermittent or skipping
Gently shake the pen downward to bring ink closer to the tip or test the pen on a scrap piece of paper to prime the ballpoint.
The mechanism feels stuck
Check the barrel opening for debris and ensure that no two tabs are caught on each other.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To begin using the pen, simply push down the coloured tab corresponding to the desired ink colour. When switching colours, ensure the previously selected tab is fully disengaged before pressing a new one; this prevents the internal mechanism from becoming misaligned. To maintain the life of the pen, store it in a cool, dry place and always retract the ink tips when the pen is not in use to prevent the ink from drying out or causing accidental marks. The pen is compatible with most standard stationery surfaces and does not require any additional setup or ink cartridges to operate.
