My hands leave lotion residue on paper. Pens constantly skip. Will the Fisher Space Pen write without skipping over lotion/oil on paper?

I can't honestly answer this. I'm not one who wears a lot of lotion, I just know I've had no issues with this pen on any surface I've wanted it to write on.

Thanks for shopping with our product. This is not a problem with pen. This is ink stains on the board. you can apply the SUPERCLEANER on the stain and rub with paper towel or cloth for 3 times and the stains should go away. You can find Superclean at Walmart or Advance Auto Part.

I have sometimes found that it helps to remove the tip and cartridge from the pen and squeeze the cartridge while it is attached to the tip. I've had this issue with other pens. I usually squeeze a drop out on to sme waste paper. But it could squirt out and make a big mess so be careful where you do it. It might also be that the cartridge is seated fully on to the tip so you might want to push it all the way on by hand

You can write just like you use to. It will not recognize your hand, its impossible to do so. its easy and 99% accurate for handwriting. If you want to draw, its not as accurate as handwriting.

Just tried it. You can write maybe 1 or 2 sentences upside-down. I recall the Fisher pens being able to do it forever. I don't do a lot of supine writing, though.

I think so, I am using A space pen refill in one that I edc, because it will write no matter what, but I have a Gel hybrid from a 402,in another and it glides smooth as warm butter.

You can use a capacitive stylus. I've used the Musemee Notier V2 which allows you to take handwritten notes but it does not have palm rejection so you either need a smudge guard type glove or some kind of material (2"x2" felt square) under your hand.

I write in my moleskin journals with them -- no bleeding through to the other side. I suppose it depends on how thin the paper is, but I've had no problems whatsoever. HTH

John,For this particular model, the top of the pen needs to be pressed to expose or retract the pen point. Personally, I believe the name of this pen, Cap-O-Matic, is misleading especially when ordering sight unseen, without prior knowledge, and the product description does not specify. Hope this helps you!I have purchased/used numerous Fisher Space pens and they have all been good!

Hello Brenda,Thanks for the inquiry. After the initial application, the tackiness wears off quickly (within 15 minutes or less), and the S Pen works perfectly.

it is like the tip of your finger; your finger is not a fine point. I don't profess to know the science behind it, but I know that all styli have wider surfaces. Probably because the touch screens are programmed to respond to surface areas the size of fingers. Also, not sure if this is valid, but this prevents scratching I assume. I wondered the same thing, but bought it anyways. Rest assured, you can write very precisely with this! There is a tip covered by the disc, but your tablet/phone should always use the center of the disc (i.e.: where the tip of the pen is) to see where you're writing, so it works out.

I tested mine with a sharpie pen and it started to smear. But it was fine with the sharpie marker... If that helps.

I really don't know and don't have a Parker Jotter to try it out but on the Fisher refill, it states "PARKER style with adapter" so it might well simply be a Parker refill type but pressurized for the Space Pen. It looks the right size despite the fact the space pen seems so short.

Are you left handed? We push our pens instead of pull. That's why pens always start skipping when we use them!

Nope, works pretty well. Doesn't cause any drag on the pen across the screen either.
