Depending on region, Product Introduced in 2013 - 2014
I cannot find any evidence that this computer supports an active stylus of any kind.

Is the pen compatible with your computer?
Answer:
- Check for compatible pen in the Compatibility document (link later in this message)
If you have the right pen, does it need a driver?
Not every pen needs a driver.
Answer:
- In many cases, Pen Drivers are available in the computer's Software and Driver Support Website.
Things that are the HP Pen
Find a Stylus for your computer
First, find the computer's Model name - this is important since not all touchscreen notebooks support a stylus.
HP Notebook PCs - How Do I Find My Model Number or Product Number?
Active Stylus - Compatibility Document
Search the document for a compatible stylus and find additional information about stylus support.
Open document: HP PCs - Touchscreen Compatibility with Pen and Stylus
- If there is an HP Active Stylus available for your model, it should be included in the document.
- If you are unsure of the model series, click open the appropriate category (Consumer or Business class systems), peruse the list to find supported models.
- Pen(s) compatible with your computer are marked with a “check mark” to the right of your computer model, in the column(s) under the Pen name / description(s).
- Additional information can sometimes be found in Advisory Documents for your computer.
- The document is updated as new information becomes available.
_______________________________________________________________
How to Search the Compatibility Document
- Open the document in your browser
- Click open both (all) categories (business and consumer) to expand the lists
- Examine the lists to find a match to your computer model
- Product Name contain an “m”? Consider this to be the same as the model with no “m”.
- Example: HP Envy x360 15m-bp011dx is the same (and uses the same stylus) as HP Envy x360 15-bp011dx
- Use CTRL-F to open the website search bar – type in the model type of your computer, leaving off the “HP” prefix and stopping just before OR just after the “dash” in the name. “Less is better”.
- Example: Spectre x360 15- or Spectre x360 or even just Envy x360 (no size designator)
- If a match is found, examine the results to determine if there is a pen for your model group
- Example: At this writing, matches for Spectre x360 15 include model groups: Spectre x360 15-ap0xx, Spectre x360 15-bl0xx
- What about the “X*” notation in the Tilt Pen column? The pen is compatible. Models marked with the asterisk have not been tested and may – or may not - provide full functionality.
- What about “xx0xx” as compared to “xx1xx”? Frequently these are both the “same” (both support the same pen).
- Example: Envy x360 15-bq0xx is the same as Envy x360 15-bq1xx
- If you are not sure, ask. (Know that response times vary widely – our community does not have access to the information and we, too, must ask to receive additional information.)
