Lamy's Converter Capacity

[marcelo]

Hi FPNers!

 

I have a Lamy Studio Palladium (Medium nib). I've been using it with the converter for more than one year and think it runs out of ink so quickly. Does it really have a small ink capacity, smaller than other brands'?

 

Regards,

 

Marcelo

I have never felt that the Z24 / Z26 are small capacity convertors - they seem to hold more ink than a standard international cartridge and usually by that point I am ready to change colours. Are you filling your convertor all the way?

Thanks for the info.

Hi.

 

Thank you for the reply.

 

Yes, I always fill it all the way, but based on yours and randomist replies I assume that its converter runs out of ink faster than, for instance, my Waterman Carène because the nib writes really wet.
