Quink was heavily advertised, and an immediate success. According to Kenneth Parker's personal journal, Quink production began on March 17, 1931, and $89,000 worth had been shipped by October 22—more than twice the company's expectations and an excellent return on the $68,000 spent on its development.

In 1931, Parker created Quink (quick drying ink), which eliminated the need for blotting. [6] In 1941, the company developed the most widely used fountain pen model in history, the Parker 51 , which led to over $400 million in sales during its 30-year history.
Top to bottom: blue Lamy T 10 proprietary ink cartridge and Z 27 and Z 28 ink converters. Fountain pens carry ink within the barrel, traditionally either inserted at one end in bulk with a syringe or eyedropper pipette, or through a mechanical filling system built into the pen (such as a piston or vacuum-pump mechanism).
Quink, which was sold in the US from 1931, is claimed to stand for 'Quisumbing Ink', but there is no reliable evidence to support this. Parker state instead that the name is an amalgam of "quick and ink". [4] However Parker did license the manufacture of Quink in the Philippines, for that market, and the bottles were labelled as such. [5]
