What is the difference between mannenhitsu and pen?


I was studying on another website and ran across a blurb that said that a pen
is also called `mannenhitsu` in Japan. Is there a difference between the two?
If not, is mannenhitsu said sometimes, just as often, or more often as `pen`
in Japanese?




万年筆（まんねんひつ） specifically refers to fountain pens, whereas ペン is more generic
and can also refer to other types of pens, such as ballpoint pens.
