How to use

To use the Pentel K116E-BE, simply remove the cap and place it on the end of the barrel to prevent loss. Hold the pen by the rubber grip for optimal comfort and apply light pressure to the paper to initiate the ink flow. When finished, always replace the cap securely to prevent the gel ink from drying out.

What to consider before purchase

• Check if the 0.3mm fine line width meets your specific writing requirements.
• Ensure you have compatible KF6 refills available if you plan to use the pen extensively.
• Consider the ink color suitability for your specific documentation needs.

Usage recommendations

For the best writing experience, store the pen in a horizontal position when not in use to maintain consistent ink flow. Avoid dropping the pen on hard surfaces, as this can damage the precision tip and affect the quality of the line.
