General features of colorful pens
Color pens feature either a cap or a retractable design to keep the pen point fresh and ready for use. This characteristic also makes them suitable for storing in a purse or a briefcase while keeping other contents safe from ink leaks. Ballpoint pens use a steel rotating ball to disperse ink efficiently and to help keep the pen tip from drying out when not in use. All pens have color indicators on the exterior to locate a specific color for convenience. Other details of color pens may include:
- A round pen body for comfortable writing
- Convenient clips for attachment to a binder or shirt pocket
- Point Guard technology, which protects pen tips from damage

Various ink details for professional drawings and sketches
Gel ink in select pens consists of a water-based formula with pigments, which produces vivid colors that stand out. Several models feature acid-free ink to help promote fade resistance and produce archival-quality work. A wide range of color options includes yellow, green, and red hues to accommodate students and employees who need pens to make standout notations on paperwork. Standard blue pens offer traditional, long-lasting ink, and those with a quick-dry feature makes them suitable for left- and right-handed individuals.
