Hp Pen and HP Spectre x360 - 13-4195nr

[FishingJr]

I am unable to get any Pen(stylus) to work with this Laptop.    I have tried 3 different brands and a HP PEN.  When I purchased the HP PEN, it says it is compatible with Spectra x360. However, I can not get the Pen to work.  Anyone have suggestions or know of a driver or software to get this working?

Welcome to the HP User Community.

Looks like this product series was introduced in 2015.

Unfortunately, I cannot find any reference that says this system is compatible with a pen / 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.

Thank You very much.  I will try the Passive stylus.

You are welcome.

"Passive" is not the same thing, of course.

It works for some things, at least.

Good Luck.
