What Are the Different Types of Pen Cartridge Refills?

Quill offers two types of pen ink cartridge refills: fountain pen ink cartridges and calligraphy pen ink cartridges.

Fountain Pen Ink Cartridges

Fountain pen ink cartridges are ink refills that are made specifically for fountain pens. A fountain pen is a writing tool that is equipped with a nib that is made of metal. Fountain pens require an internal ink reservoir that is pulled from an ink cartridge. This particular design eliminates the need to constantly dip the pen in an inkwell while writing.

Calligraphy Pen Ink Cartridges

Calligraphy pen ink cartridges are ink refills that are designed to work specifically with calligraphy pens. Calligraphy pens are similar to fountain pens, as they both require ink cartridges. However, there are some differences between the two types of pens. Calligraphy pens have replaceable nibs made of less durable material than fountain pens. Calligraphy pen nibs are also more flexible than fountain pen nibs to allow for writing more freely and designing creative calligraphy.
