Recommendations

Store the stamp horizontally in a cool, dry place when not in use. Use only compatible Trodat water-based stamp ink cartridges for reliable impressions and simple replacement. Periodically check and align the date bands to ensure precise impressions and minimize wear by avoiding excessive force during stamping.
