HP tilt pen calibration?

[KatieTed]

I just bought an HP spectre  2-in-1 and the tilt pen specifically to use with photoshop, drawing, etc. when I try to use the pen, the actually drawing point doesn’t line up anywhere near where I actually have it touching the screen. It’s so far off that it’s completely useless. Is there a way to calibrate its location?

@KatieTed Welcome to HP Community!

I understand that the HP tilt pen is not working properly.

There is no option to perform the tilt pen calibration. However, you can calibrate the touchscreen and check.

Calibrating the touchscreen

The new pen works when the battery is inserted; however, calibrating the touchscreen is recommended. Calibration of the touchscreen is completed using the Digitizer Calibration Tool:

1. Type calibrate in the Windows search field and then click Calibrate the screen for pen or touch input.

   

2. Click Calibrate.

   

3. Select Pen Input.

   

4. Follow the instructions on the screen. For best results, quickly tap all the cross-hairs on the screen before the pen deactivates.

   

5. In the Digitizer Calibration Tool dialog box, click Yes to save the calibration.
