Introduction
This manual provides instructions for the Uni Style Fit Single Color Slim Gel Ink Pen, a versatile writing instrument designed for smooth and precise writing.

Product Overview
Figure 1: The Uni Style Fit Single Color Slim Gel Ink Pen. This image displays the pen's sleek, slender design, with the transparent lower barrel revealing the black ink cartridge and the ultra-fine 0.28mm tip. The upper part of the barrel is silver, bearing the "uni STYLE+FIT" branding.
The Uni Style Fit pen is characterized by its slim profile and precise 0.28mm gel ink tip, providing a consistent and smooth writing experience. It is designed for comfortable handling and is suitable for various writing tasks, from note-taking to detailed illustrations.
Setup
Before first use, ensure the protective resin ball (also known as a wax ball or protective tip) is removed from the pen's tip. This small, clear ball prevents the ink from drying out during storage and transit.
- Locate the Protective Tip: Carefully examine the very end of the pen's writing tip. You will see a tiny, clear or colored resin ball covering the ballpoint.
- Remove the Tip: Gently pull or flick the protective resin ball off the tip. It should come off easily. Avoid twisting or applying excessive force, which could damage the tip.
- Test the Pen: Lightly write on a piece of scrap paper to ensure ink flow is consistent. If the ink does not flow immediately, try gently scribbling for a few seconds.
Note: The protective tip is for initial packaging only and is not needed for ongoing use or storage.
Operating Instructions
The Uni Style Fit Single Color Slim Gel Ink Pen is straightforward to operate.
- Writing: Hold the pen comfortably and apply light pressure to write. The 0.28mm tip is designed for fine lines and smooth ink delivery.
- Retracting/Extending the Tip: This pen features a snap-closure mechanism. To extend the tip for writing, simply remove the cap. To protect the tip and prevent drying, replace the cap firmly after use.
- Ink Cartridge Replacement: If using as a refill for a Uni Style Fit multi-pen body, refer to the multi-pen body's manual for specific instructions on how to insert and remove refills. For standalone use, the ink cartridge is integrated and not designed for user replacement.
Maintenance
Proper care will ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your Uni Style Fit pen.
- Storage: Store the pen with the cap securely attached when not in use to prevent the ink from drying out. Avoid storing in direct sunlight or extreme temperatures.
- Cleaning: If the pen barrel becomes dirty, wipe it gently with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
- Tip Care: Avoid dropping the pen, especially on its tip, as this can damage the ballpoint and affect ink flow.
Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Ink not flowing / Skipping | Protective tip not removed, dried ink on tip, air bubble in cartridge. | Ensure protective tip is removed. Gently scribble on scrap paper to restart ink flow. If problem persists, the cartridge may be depleted. |
| Ink appears faint | Low ink level, improper writing angle. | Check ink level. Adjust writing angle. If ink is low, replace the pen (for standalone) or cartridge (for multi-pen system). |
| Pen feels scratchy | Damaged tip, debris on tip. | Inspect tip for damage. Gently wipe tip with a soft cloth. If damaged, the pen may need replacement. |
