As a result, we recommend that you: 1)Put on the anti-touch glove that comes with the package to help prevent accidental touch. 2) Draw in full-screen mode, and keep the toolbar away from your hand to avoid accidental touch. 3) Uncheck the Enable touch input option. See attached picture here.

The pen nib of the digital pen can be set as Valid/Invalid according to users’ needs (check the picture here). Click the drop-down button to set its activity. In Valid mode, the pen works well, and in Invalid mode, the pen has a cursor movement, but cannot complete specified actions.

(1)Determine the amount of force required for a pen to produce a click or pressure sensation.

(2)The slope of the pressure response curve can be changed. 

(3)Determine how much pressure is required on the pen nib to get the highest level of pressure sensitivity.

*Draw lines in the Pressure Test box with the pen, and the pressure changes on the pen nib will be displayed in the bar on the right. Click the “Delete” button above to remove the lines, reset the pressure sensitivity level and test it until you find the appropriate pressure sensitivity level (see the picture here).

*A steep curve means a more sensitive response.

Hold the Pen: Hold the digital pen in the same way you would a physical pen. Adjust your grip so that your thumb or index finger can easily toggle the pen press keys. Take care not to press the key by accident when drawing with the pen.

Note: When not in use, please place the digital pen on the table or the pen holder. If you place the pen on the pen computer, it may interfere with the operation of the mouse and other devices, as well as prevent your computer from entering sleep mode.

Cursor Movement: Move the pen slightly above the pen computer's working area without contacting the pen computer's surface, and the cursor on the screen will move to the new location accordingly.

Click: Tap on the working area of the pen computer with the pen to register a click. Double-click to open an item that has been highlighted or selected by pressing lightly on the screen.

Move: Pick up a file or icon, then drag the pen nib across the screen to move it.

Use the Pen Press Keys: The digital pen has two press keys, which can be programmed to perform various functions in the driver. The pen press keys will function as long as the vertical space between the pen nib and the pen computer is less than 10mm. 

1. Pressure Sensitivity
The first major improvement is that the pens, which are powered by Huion PenTech 3.0+, will respond with more linear pressure sensitivity. Generally speaking, what you get when you draw are fairly regular and smooth strokes and curves, the same as a real pen. So you can fully throw yourself into drawing and creating.
2. Silicone Grip
Another revolution of PW550 is the silicone grip. Some users have complained that the digital pen PW517, powered by PenTech 3.0, can be easily stained with dust. For this reason, we modified PW550 and PW550S via ultraviolet radiation to improve their dust-repellent properties and keep the grips cleaner.
3. Pen Nib
Compared with previous Huion digital pens, such as PW517, PW550 features a smaller pen head. Consequently, users will be able to see more clearly without the pen's tip obstructing their view and will have a more accurate cursor to judge where to drop their brush down when drawing.

If the pen nib is badly worn, please replace it with a new pen nib as soon as possible. Please refer to the image here.

1. Turn the pen holder counterclockwise to remove the replacement nib.

2. Tilt the pen and pull the nib out through the nib clip.

3. Insert the replacement nib directly into the pen's barrel until the nib stops moving forward.
