Usage & Safety

• Initial Use: Each new pen features a tiny wax globule on the tip to prevent the ink from drying. Please peel this off before your first use.

• Storage: Store the pen horizontally or tip-down for the best ink performance. Always retract the tip when not in use to protect the Synergy Tip and prevent accidental ink stains.

• Paper Compatibility: While suitable for most papers, the pigment ink performs best on high-quality, non-coated paper where it can bond securely to the fibers.

• Temperature: Avoid exposing the pen to extreme heat or direct sunlight for prolonged periods, as this can affect the pressure and flow of the gel ink.
