Compressing the button at the end of the pen with your thumb forces air out of the barrel. When released, this allows ink to be sucked up into the pen. The open ended design of the pen helps sure that there is no negative pressure inside the pen that could reduce ink flow, especially while making broad strokes that use a lot of ink.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp style=\"white-space:pre-wrap;\" data-rte-preserve-empty=\"true\"\u003eFor maintenance, the piston mechanism can be used to rinse water through the nib or alternatively, you can blow air or water through it with your mouth.
