I would say, "No - the HP Pen is not compatible with your computer."

 

Sad news - No pens found for this series of computer.

 

As a start, there is no pen mentioned in the service manual.

Maintenance and Service Guide

 

I cannot find evidence that this series of machine supports any pen.

Touchscreen is not a guarantee that the screen supports an active stylus.

 

====================

If you wish to do so,

If your computer has a touchscreen,

If an active stylus is not an option on your machine,

Consider a Passive Stylus / Pen

This is not the same thing as an active stylus, of course.

Passive pen works like your finger on the touchscreen.
