Overview Thank you for purchasing this Monoprice Graphic Tablet! A Graphic Tablet, with its accompanying wireless digital pen, is a natural and intuitive input device for drawing and image editing tasks.

Pen Tablet Functions After installing the device driver, your pen tablet can perform the following functions: Direct Pointing: You can move the cursor to any location on the screen by hovering the digital pen tip over the tablet's surface. Three-Button Mouse Commands: Your pen tablet provides all the functionality of a three-button mouse using the pen tip and two buttons. Pen Scrolling: You can scroll in documents and applications by pressing the middle button on the digital pen while moving the pen over the tablet's surface. Pressure Sensitivity: The tablet and pen feature 2048 levels of pressure sensitivity so, like a real pencil, the harder you press down the darker and thicker the lines, while minimal pressure will produce faint, thin lines. 3.

Usage Tips The following guidelines will help obtain the best results in using this Graphic Tablet: Double Tapping: A quick double tap of the pen tip is the equivalent of a double-click on a mouse. Scrolling: The pen can be used to perform the same scrolling function available with an ordinary wheel mouse. Using With A Mouse: In addition to the tablet and pen, you can also have a mouse connected and installed. However, only one device will function at a time. Do not connect more than two input devices at the same time as it could cause the cursor to jitter or freeze. Power: It is recommended to power off the pen and tablet when not in use. Storing: Do not store the pen in such a way that pressure could be applied to the tip. When not in use, store the pen in a pen holder or place it horizontally on a flat surface. When storing for a long period of time, remove the pen tip using the instructions found in section III below. 7 MONOP PRICE 10 0593 Mac User's Manual II.
