Welcome to the HP Community --
We are a Peer-to-Peer Forum for people who use HP Technology.
According to the Maintenance and Service Guide, the system appears to have a touch screen.
I do not find any active pen / active stylus pen options in the guide.
Verify that your system has a touch screen,
Next,
Consider purchasing a Passive Pen.
Most touchscreen displays are not fussy about which model or brand passive pen you use.
Read the reviews and try one that you like.
Does my computer have a touch screen?
Control Panel > icon view > Device Manager
Tab View > Check Show hidden devices
Open Human Interface Devices
Look for HID-compliant touch screen
Next, Optional
(Note -- If the touch screen is listed and is working, there is no need to adjust, enable, or disable the device)
Tab Action > Select Disable device or Enable device > Confirm selection
Reference: Microsoft - Enable or Disable your touchscreen in Windows
Next.
Passive Pen Options for Touch Screen
If you wish to do so,
If your computer has a touchscreen,
When an active stylus is not an option on your machine,
Consider a Passive Stylus / Pen
Capacitive / Passive pen is not the same thing as an active stylus, of course.
Passive pen works like your finger on the touchscreen.
