Is there anyway to adjust the pressure sensitivity/curve on the HP Pen or any other pen that supports MPP? The pen's default sensitivity is too high. And the surface pen's sensitivity is even higher(maybe because it's heavier??).
Solved! Go to Solution.

Welcome to HP Forums,
This is a great place to get support, find answers and tips,
Thank you for posting your query, I'll be more than glad to help you out 🙂
As I understand, you're in need of support.
Don't worry as I'll be glad to help, however, to provide an accurate resolution, I need a few more details:
What is the model of the pen you're using on your notebook?
I would like to inform you that, there are no settings to change the pen sensitivity, however, you can calibrate the pen.
- Go to the control panel.
- In the search box type in Pen.
- Click on the Calibrate the screen for pen or touch input.
- Calibrate your active pen.
The HP Active Stylus does not support any levels of pressure sensitivity. You could check with other manufacturers who might have the option to adjust the sensitivity.
Hope this helps,
Have a good day ahead,
And Feel free to ask any other queries as well,
Considering, this forum has some of the best people in the world available and ready to help.

I am using the HP Pen as it's the one that came with my spectre:
http://store.hp.com/us/en/pdp/hp-pen
It does support pressure sensitivity as I can see the difference in thickness of my strokes as I add or remove pressure.
Is pressure curve adjustment an option that HP plans on implementing? The surface pen does have the feature, but the software that allows the adjustment seems to only work on surface products.
