Tips
■
Hold the pen the same way you hold a writing pen, and steady your writing
hand by resting it on the display surface.
■
Line up the pointer before you tap, in cases where the pointer and pen
point are out of alignment. The screen reads the position of the pointer,
not the tap.
■
Store the pen in the Gateway Tablet PC’s pen holder. Store extra pens in
a drawer to avoid prolonged pressure on the pen tip.
■
The pen has internal electronics, so keep it dry and avoid contact with
liquids.
■
The tablet responds to most Penabled™ EMR pens manufactured by
Wacom
