Maintenance
PILOT G2 pens are refillable, allowing you to save money and reduce waste.
- Refilling: To replace the ink cartridge, unscrew the barrel of the pen. Remove the old cartridge and insert a new PILOT G2 refill (sold separately). Screw the barrel back on securely.
- Storage: Store pens with the tip retracted to prevent ink from drying out. Avoid exposing pens to extreme temperatures.

Troubleshooting
While PILOT G2 pens are known for their reliability, here are some tips for optimal performance:
- Skipping or Fading Ink: If the ink flow is inconsistent, try scribbling on a scrap piece of paper to prime the tip. Ensure the pen has sufficient ink. If the cartridge is low, replace it.
- Smudging: The quick-drying ink helps prevent smudges. Allow a few seconds for the ink to dry, especially on glossy paper.
- Retraction Issues: If the tip does not retract smoothly, check for any debris in the mechanism. Ensure the pen is not damaged.
