Default Red ink cartridges for Parker Fountain Pens

Does anyone have any recommendations where to find red ink cartridges
for Parker Fountain Pens? I can only find blue and black; and it would
be nice to use red, when I am marking up documents.

Thanks, Nick

Perfect! Much thanks. I'm in Canada, but they seem to ship
internationally!

Or just save some empty cartridges and re-fill with ink from a bottle...

This is a great suggestion and Pendemonium sells a special syringe just
for this purpose. You will seldome find the selection of inks in
cartridges that is available in bottles.

Sam does ship to Canada. If you are so inclined, any pharmacist will
sell you an insulin syringe which can be used to refill cartridges. We
don't have the kind of drug paraphernalia laws which exist in the USA.
Using syringes to refill inkjet cartridges has become such a common
practice that my local druggist can tell you what type of syringes
work well with any give brand of printer.

I've tried the Levenger Cardinal Red large cartridges. The color of
the ink is great. However, I found the ink would keep drying out in
the pen unless I used it as my main writer. The Parker's I have allow
air to flow, even when the cap is on.

The large Levenger cartridges have Parker style "nipple" on the one
end and an international style "nipple" on the other end. I've had
better luck using these cartridges in a Pelikan Future, which has an
airtight cap. The ink doesn't dry out as quickly.

For whatever it's worth.

My experience, with both the cartridges and bottles, with Levenger ink
is identical.

I prefer Quink (and you can get red) and Aurora (black or blue, the
only colours available...sigh)
