Using a fountain pen is a special experience that simply can’t be matched by regular pens.

Each Parker Jotter fountain pen comes with one blue quink ink cartridge. To use the cartridge you must twist open the body of the pen, push the cartridge onto the prong of the feeder to pierce the cartridge and lock it in place. Then leave the pen nib down to allow the ink to flow through the pen for 15 minutes. Don’t be concerned if it takes a little while to begin writing. Cartridge Refills.

To clean your fountain pen we suggest using lukewarm (not hot) water to clear out the nib and feed until the water appears clear. You can do this by dipping the pen in the water, or if using a piston converter draw the water up inside and push backing out. Then touch dry with paper towel and add fresh ink. The pen may write a little watery at first, but this is normal.
