HOLDING THE PEN
Hold the Bamboo Fun pen like you would a normal pen or pencil. Make sure the pen buttons are in a
convenient location where you can toggle them with your thumb or forefinger, but not accidently press them
while drawing or navigating with the pen. Tilt the pen in any way that feels most comfortable.
Position for drawing and navigating.
Position for erasing.
Important:
When the pen is not in use, place it in the pen stand or lay it flat on your desk.
To maintain the sensitivity of your pen tip, do not store the pen in a container where it will
rest on its tip. Leaving a Bamboo Fun tool on the tablet may interfere with screen cursor
positioning when using other pointing devices. Also, leaving a Bamboo Fun tool on the
tablet when not in use can prevent your computer from going to sleep.
Use the pen stand to store the pen
between tasks. The stand allows
vertical or horizontal placement of
the pen.
