INTRODUCTION AND OVERVIEW
The Wacom
®
Cintiq
®
12WX pen display combines the benefits of a Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) with the
control, comfort, and productivity of Wacom’s cordless, battery-free pen technology. This gives you a
direct pen-on-screen interface for your computer.
Cintiq’s basic components include a Wacom pen tablet internally mounted behind a 12.1" wide format
TFT color display, and Wacom’s Grip Pen.
Cintiq comes with an integrated display stand, enabling you to use the pen display flat on your desk or
at a 25 degree incline. Your pen display also includes a rotation pivot, enabling you to rotate the display
as you work.
This manual describes how to install and use your Cintiq pen display.
The computer treats the Cintiq pen display as two separate devices (the display and the pen
tablet).
Therefore, the installation process is completed in two stages:
•
First install the Cintiq as a display.
•
Then install the Cintiq as a pen tablet.
Both stages require hardware and software installations and adjustments.
Please follow all
instructions carefully.
IMPORTANT:
You MUST install the Wacom pen tablet driver software for correct pen-on-screen
functionality.
To learn about using the Wacom Tablet control panel to customize your pen display tablet and pen
settings on Windows or Macintosh computers, see
Customizing
on page 27.
