setting?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRetractable pens eliminate lost caps, one-click readiness for quick notes in meetings, and a sealed tip that resists drying out in shared pen cups compared to traditional cap designs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWill the ink dry out if I leave one in my bag for a week between

damaging the click mechanism?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDrop the pen tip-down into the cup with the click button facing up; avoid forcing it past the rim, which can stress the retractable

disposable?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Paper Mate Profile is designed as a disposable pen, so there are no separate refills to buy; once the ink is used up, you replace the whole pen from your

pens use oil-based ink that dries quickly, resists smearing, and lasts a long time, while gel pens use water-based ink that feels smoother but can smear and run out faster; the Paper Mate Profile uses a hybrid ink that aims to combine the best of both for everyday writing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"haulely","offers":[{"title":"12 Count (Pack
