Pen is working, but I'm unable to pair it with the computer, so basically the two buttons are unusable.
Already tried:
- HP Support assistant: everything is up to date. Even the firmware.
- Windows update: Everything is up to date.
Solved! Go to Solution.

Thanks banhien!
Yes they are.
What HP didn't say is that you have to download the HP Pen Control Software.
I found the solution minutes after posting this question.

Found the software in this link and it solved my problem (no need to pair it):
ftp://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp80001-80500/sp80343.exe
ftp://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp80001-80500/sp80343.html
Keep in mind that for the buttons to work you need to press them while pressing the screen.
Hope it helps!
