Does the pen start reliably and immediately? And is the writing smooth without any skips?

Yes, the pen writes reliably, immediately, smoothly, and doesn't skip. However, if you leave the cap off for multiple minutes without writing, the tip will dry slightly and may write lightly until it rewets.

Yes, but it is a felt tip, as all sharpies, so there are no skips as there would be with a rollerball.

I have two of these and the first one I got was amazing, smooth, and felt great to write with. I use it for my daily journal. The second one I got was oddly clumpy at first but got better after a bit of use.

Writing is smooth and without skipping. Sometimes (especially as the pen ages) it takes a second to start though. The stainless part looks nice. I wish Sharpie had this in medium tip like they now have with their disposable pens.

This pen is more of a marker style pen. Think of a very thin Sharpie. The writing is smooth and starts immediately. Of course, that fades over time as the pen dries out. However, it does last a good long while.

I agree with Gilberto. No problems with speed or writing. It is a good machine.

I've never had a problem with anything other than the pen making a readable mark.

Hi, I haven't had any issues with that so far. Keyboard seems responsive. I typed 2/3 of an article and had no problems.

I keep my cap on, so I can't directly answer the question. However, the ink flow stays steady throughout the life of the cartridge and doesn't run or gum up like some other pens.

Mine has worked well from the start and even if I do not use it for a week or more, it still starts up. I will tell you two things to do that will help your problem. I have used ink pens for 40 years, so: first clean the pen with cold water (the nib) and then buy a high quality ink. I use Edelstein from Pelikan and it is by far the best one made. it is expensive, but it goes a long way and you can get lots of colors. Pelikan also has cartridges, but I use a bladder with my ink pens. You can find Pelikan at Fahrney's or Colorado Pen. Good luck. I believe this will make the difference.

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.

No issue with scratches on my end. Have you checked the pen tip to ensure it is smooth?

Twist. Writes without skipping. Highlighter has screw on cap but can dry out quickly if not put back on right after use. I like the pen!

It's a medium point. I have two of them but don't use them. They are hard to start the ink flowing after even an hour or two sitting unused and skip until you work at it to get the ink flowing properly. I've been quite disappointed in them. Other than how they write, I like them a lot: the look and feel of the pen is very nice.

Not sure if i completely understand the question but the keyboard is very responsive and i haven't had any type of errors while typing nor when i have saved a typed document. It works just as a standard keyboard once it is connected. There is a slight lag when you first start typing but that is because the keyboard goes to sleep if not used over a period of time, other than that there has been no issue at all. I hope this answers your question. If not please clarify the question.

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.

Yes, the pen is extra fine - which in a fountain pen becomes "fine" over time. But it's nice. Like a 0.5mm gel pen.

It is extra fine and I would recxend for all art drawing although the ink I have been using is not water proof which Makes it difficult to add color over on top of it. Not a problem that can't be overcome with waterproof ink. It is not like a micron pen as you do have to let the ink dry. It can smudge when first added to paper. The cartridges are small but I have been using up some I had on hand so can't tell you how the converter works yet. Of all the fountain or drawing pens I have this is the one I have with me all the time.

Hi Grace, It does. I find the length (size of a regular pen) gives me perfect control/coordination, and the tip is smooth- able to work perfectly from any angle. I think you'll be pleased with it. Hope that helps �

I know what you mean. It can be frustrating. If you loaded the program setting properly, even then the pen sometimes has a mind of it's own. Sometimes it's how your holding it, but I never figured out what makes it act that way. When it does work, I'm relieved. Just some kind of tricky situation.
