Step-by-step guide: how to change the cartridge of the Brass Fountain Pen

Step 1: Unscrew the body and remove the used cartridge.

Hold the nib section of the fountain pen and unscrew the brass body in the indicated direction. Gently pull out the empty cartridge to remove it.

Step 2: Insert the new cartridge.

With the fountain pen in a vertical position, nib facing upward, insert the narrow end of the cartridge all the way in.

It may take a few minutes for the ink to flow toward the nib. After that, your TRAVELER’S fountain pen will write smoothly and continuously.

Step 1: Open the body and remove the empty cartridge.

As with the fountain pen, hold the front section and unscrew the brass body. Remove the used cartridge by pulling it straight out.

Step 2: Insert the new cartridge correctly.

Insert the narrow end of the cartridge toward the feed, always keeping the pen in a vertical position, tip facing upward.

Step 3: Let the ink begin to flow.

After a few minutes, the ink will saturate the feed and you will be able to write smoothly again.

Usage recommendations:

• If you change ink colors, clean the nib first.
• Use original TRAVELER’S cartridges to avoid compatibility issues.
• Always insert the cartridge with the nib facing upward, so the ink flow will be more even.
• Keep the cap closed when you are not using the fountain pen to prevent the ink from drying out.

In conclusion, changing the cartridge in your TRAVELER’S fountain pen or rollerball pen is a quick and simple process. By following these steps, you can keep your pen always ready to write and enjoy the unique writing experience offered by TRC.
