Pressing harder down on the pen tip will give thicker lines. If this is not the case, then the pen is
malfunctioning and you should seek help from your reseller.
(3) If the chalkboard passes the tests described above, and you still cannot detect pressure sensitivity,
then check your application program again and consult the on-line help function of the program.

To store the digital pen, make sure that the tip does not touch anything. Especially do not let the pen stand in a cup
or pen holder with the tip down. A constant, though small, pressure applied to the pen tip will cause a constant drain on
the pen’s battery. It is recommended to place the pen in a pen holder specially designed for this purpose, or store it with
the pen tip pointing upward, or place it horizontally with the pen tip free of any other objects.

With the digital pen you can conveniently browse a document or a Web page. All you need to do is press and hold
barrel button 1 (equivalent to a click with the middle button of a three-button mouse), and hover the pen over the active
area. In Microsoft Internet Explorer, for instance, the Web page will scroll up and down, and left and right,
corresponding to your pen movement. The exact behavior of pen scrolling function varies from program to program.
Notably, Microsoft Word supports only vertical scrolling, for instance.
