Ink cartridges are a very convenient way to use fountain pens, and are something that most new users run into right away since they usually come with a new pen. But if you don’t know how to install and use them, it can be a little confusing. So that’s why I created this video. Here I cover:
- What are ink cartridges (:21)
- How to install them (2:55)
- Ball Agitators (4:42)
- Standard International Cartridges (5:54)
- Storing, Cleaning, and Reusing Cartridges (7:37)
We’ve also set up a Cartridge/Converter Guide on GouletPens.com, to help you to figure out which cartridges fit your specific model of pen.
Pens I used in this video:
- Lamy Vista
- Platinum Preppy
- Stipula Passaporto

I’m sure this video will help a lot of you to figure out how those cartridges work! I’d love to hear what you think, just ask whatever you want in the comments :)See the other Fountain Pen 101 videos here.
Write On,
