PEN
Eraser (when equipped)
Pen (when equipped)
A pressure-sensitive freehand tool for image editing and creating naturallooking pen strokes. It is also efficient for document annotation and taking
notes in applications that support handwriting recognition.
The pen is cordless and battery free. It is ideally suited to enhance your
workflow by enabling the pen and digital ink features found within Microsoft
Windows 7, Vista, and Office 2007 or later. Take advantage of digital markup for collaborative editing and use digital ink to take notes in applications
that support handwriting recognition.
Important: When not in use, place the pen into the pen holder or lay
it flat on your desk. The eraser end of the pen should be inserted
first into the loop. To maintain the sensitivity of your pen, do not
store the pen in a container where it will rest on the tip or eraser.
Leaving the pen on the tablet may interfere with screen cursor
positioning when using other pointing devices, or may prevent your
computer from going to sleep.
Pen buttons
Replaceable nib
(pen tip)
PEN HOLDER
Use the pen holder (when equipped) to store the pen when it is not in use. The pen holder does not apply
to Bamboo Touch.
Insert the pen into the pen holder as shown.
• The eraser end of the pen should be inserted first into the loop.
• Do not wedge the pen buttons inside the loop, otherwise they may
be continually depressed and possibly fail.
Important: You can also lay the pen flat on your desk.
Leaving the pen on the tablet may interfere with screen cursor
positioning when using other pointing devices, or may prevent
your computer from going to sleep.
Wacom recommends that you do not store the pen in a stand or
holder other than the one provided with your Bamboo tablet.
The pen may be damaged if it falls out of an unsuitable stand.
The sensitivity of your pen may be affected if the pen is stored in
a container where it rests on the tip or eraser.

SETTING UP YOUR BAMBOO
To minimize fatigue, comfortably organize your work area. Position your tablet, pen (if equipped), and
keyboard for easy access without unnecessary reaching. Adjust your monitor so you can view it
comfortably with a minimum of eyestrain. For best results, position the tablet so the screen cursor follows
the same direction as your hand movements on the tablet.

When not actively working with touch, you can rest
your fingers and palm on the tablet. Touch data will
not be sent when you touch the tablet active area
with more than two fingers.
Alternate tasks and tools throughout the day.
Maintain a good posture at all times.
Minimize awkward postures and repetitive
movements that cause discomfort.
Change your position if you feel any discomfort due
to your work position.
For right-handed use, position the tablet so the input
(active) area is located to the right of the
ExpressKeys. If using the tablet as a primary
pointing device and mouse replacement, consider
placing it to the right of your keyboard.
For left-handed use, position the tablet with the input
area to the left of the ExpressKeys. See configuring
the tablet orientation for details. If using the tablet as
a primary pointing device and mouse replacement,
consider placing it to the left of your keyboard.
If using the tablet primarily as a creative tool,
consider placing the tablet below the keyboard,
centered with respect to your monitor.
Note regarding RSI: Wacom makes no representation, promise or guarantee that Wacom products will cure or

CONFIGURING THE TABLET ORIENTATION
You are prompted to choose a default tablet orientation during the initial installation process using the
Bamboo Installation CD. At the log-in and user switching screens, the tablet orientation will use the default
orientation that was selected when the driver was installed. To change the default orientation, reinstall the
driver using the Bamboo Installation CD and when prompted select a new default orientation.
You can also change how your tablet is oriented using the following procedure. However, the default
orientation used at the log-in screen will not be affected.
To set up your Bamboo for right-handed operation:
• Open the Bamboo control panel and select the
TABLET tab. Choose the RIGHT HANDED option.
The tablet driver automatically configures all
aspects of the tablet for correct right-handed use.
• Next, physically rotate your tablet so the tablet
ExpressKeys are positioned to the left.
To set up your Bamboo for left-handed operation:
• Open the control panel and select the TABLET tab.
Choose the LEFT HANDED option. The tablet driver
automatically configures all aspects of the tablet
for correct left-handed use.
• Next, physically rotate your tablet so the tablet
ExpressKeys are positioned to the right.

UNDERSTANDING THE TABLET ACTIVE AREA
Depending on your tablet model, Bamboo can accept touch input, pen input, or both. Note, however, that
pen and touch input cannot be used at the same time.
Touch input
On touch-sensitive tablet models, slide your finger across the active
area to position the screen pointer.
Use single- or two-finger input for clicking and navigating.
Use two-finger input for gestures that control other functions, such as
scrolling and zooming.
Learn about the touch experience with Bamboo.
Tablet active area
The area of your Bamboo tablet that senses touch or pen input.
For tablet models that support both pen and touch input:
• Touch input is disengaged whenever the pen tip or eraser is within
the tablet proximity range. Lift the pen and your hand away from
the tablet active area to re-enable touch input.
• The pen input area is slightly larger than the touch sensor area.

Pen input
The pen works only on the active area of tablet models that support pen
input.
Wherever you place the pen on the tablet, the screen pointer will jump to
the corresponding point on the screen. The screen pointer indicates
pen position, and follows the movement of the pen across the tablet
surface.
Learn about the pen experience with Bamboo.
Note: For tablets that support pen input, the active area is a mapped
representation of your computer screen(s). By default it uses the
entire screen or all screens if you have multiple displays. You can
customize the mapping relationship for pen input by setting the
tablet mapping.

WORKING WITH MULTIPLE MONITORS
If your computer is equipped with more than one monitor, Bamboo will map to your monitors based upon
how they are configured in the display properties control panel.
•
If more than one monitor is in use and you are in extended monitor mode, the tablet maps to all
monitors as if they were one large display. The below image illustrates a tablet mapping to the entire
system desktop, which is displayed on the two monitors.
Monitor 1
•
Monitor 2
If your monitors are in mirror mode (both monitors display the same content), the tablet maps to the
entire space on each monitor and the screen cursor is displayed on each monitor simultaneously.
See your hardware and operating system documentation for details on configuring your computer and
operating system for use with multiple monitors.
Note: The pen can also be customized to map to a single monitor, or to a portion of the monitor area.
See setting the tablet mapping.
CONTROL PANEL BASICS
After mastering the basics of using your Bamboo tablet, you may want to customize the way touch or pen
input works. The Bamboo control panel is where you customize your Bamboo tablet settings.

USING YOUR BAMBOO
If you are new to using Bamboo, read the following sections.
The touch experience with Bamboo
The pen experience with Bamboo
THE TOUCH EXPERIENCE WITH BAMBOO
Bamboo is designed to enhance the way you work. Touch input enables you to interact with a computer
using only your fingertips on the Bamboo tablet.
First learn the basic actions to navigate and perform typical mouse operations. Then learn the gestural
movements to control other functions such as scrolling, zooming, and rotating.
Touch input is activated whenever you touch the tablet’s active area.
•
One- and two-finger input only is recognized by the tablet. When not actively working with touch, you
can rest your fingers and palm on the tablet. Touch data will not be sent when you touch the tablet
active area with more than two fingers.
•
When using two-finger input methods, you can generally position your fingers as far apart as you find
comfortable. However, be aware that touching the tablet with your fingers set too closely together may
be interpreted as coming from a single finger, or confused with which finger initiated or performed an
action or gesture.
•
As you learn the different input methods, experiment with what works best for you. Take care to
prevent accidental touch input. For example, if your small finger or the palm of your hand touches the
active area of the tablet while you are navigating or performing a touch action, then your input may be
interrupted or you may trigger an unanticipated right-click.
Note: For tablet models that support both pen and touch input, the pen disengages touch input whenever
the pen tip or eraser is within the tablet proximity range. Lift the pen and your hand away from the
tablet active area to re-enable touch input.

EXPRESSKEY BASICS
Most Bamboo tablet models feature customizable ExpressKeys. Note that ExpressKeys are not available
for Bamboo Pen (models CTL-460 and CTL-660).
ExpressKeys
Press individual keys to perform frequently used functions or
keystrokes. ExpressKeys can also be used to modify touch or pen
input properties as you work.
Consider some of these alternate ways of using the keys:
• Set a key to a commonly used keyboard shortcut.
• Set a key to launch a commonly used file or application, such as
your email program.
• Choose from any of the other available functions.
Note: The ExpressKeys can be operated in combination with one
another. For example, if you program one key to simulate the
CTRL key and another to simulate an ALT keystroke, when you
press both keys at the same time a CTRL+ALT is simulated.

THE PEN EXPERIENCE WITH BAMBOO
Bamboo is designed to enhance the way you work. Bamboo tablet models equipped for pen input enable
you to interact with a computer using the pen on the active area of the tablet. The pen is cordless, battery
free, and pressure-sensitive.
Note: For Bamboo tablets that support both pen and touch input, the pen disengages touch input
whenever the pen tip or eraser is within the tablet proximity range. Lift the pen and your hand away
from the tablet active area to re-enable touch input. If you experience unintended touch input from
your hand, manually disable touch by pressing an Expresskey set to Touch Toggle. After you are
done working with the pen, press the ExpressKey again to re-enable touch. See also setting tablet
and ExpressKey functions.

HOLDING THE PEN
Hold the pen like you would hold a normal pen or pencil. Make sure the pen buttons are in a convenient
location where you can toggle them with your thumb or forefinger, but not accidently press them while
drawing or positioning with the pen. Tilt the pen in any way that feels most comfortable.
When you are not using the pen,
store it in the pen holder. The eraser
end of the pen should be inserted
first into the loop.
Position for drawing and navigation
Position for erasing
Important: When not in use, place the pen in the pen holder or lay it flat on your desk. To maintain
the sensitivity of your pen, do not store the pen in a container where it will rest on the tip or eraser
(when equipped). Leaving the pen on the tablet may interfere with screen cursor positioning when
using other pointing devices, or may prevent your computer from going to sleep.

USING THE PEN ON THE TABLET
There are four basic techniques for using the pen: positioning, clicking, double-clicking, and dragging.
If you are unfamiliar with using the pen, try the exercises on the following pages.
Positioning
Clicking
Dragging
Using the pen buttons
Writing and drawing with pressure sensitivity
Erasing
Eye-hand coordination exercise
POSITIONING
The pen is used to position the pointer (or cursor) on your screen.
Lift the pen and place the pen tip on the tablet
active area. The cursor instantly jumps to the new
location.
Move the screen cursor by moving the pen across
the tablet surface. Do this without touching the
tablet surface, but while still keeping the pen tip
within proximity of the tablet.
To select an icon or folder, use your pen to position
the screen cursor over the object. Press down to
select.
Tips:
If you find that using a pen is somewhat difficult, try
the eye-hand coordination exercise.
Pointing is easier when you orient the tablet square
to the computer monitor so the screen cursor
follows the same direction as your hand
movements on the tablet.
Contents
Index
28
Contents
Index
29
You can set the pen to position the screen cursor two different ways (see setting the tablet mapping).
•
In PEN MODE, wherever you place the pen on the tablet, the screen cursor will jump to a corresponding
point on the display screen. The screen pointer indicates pen position, and follows the movement of
the pen across the tablet surface. This is the default setting for the pen.
When positioning the screen cursor and operating a pen
button, the pen tip needs to be within 7 mm (0.28 inch)
of the tablet surface. The pen tip does not need to
touch the tablet in order to move the screen cursor or
use a pen button.
16 mm (0.63 inch) proximity range
7 mm (0.28 inch) proximity
•
In MOUSE MODE you move the cursor with a “pick up and slide” motion similar to using a mouse.

CLICKING
Click to highlight or select an item on the screen. Double-click to open it.
Clicking. Tap the pen tip once on the tablet, or
press the pen tip on the tablet with enough force to
register a click. (If CLICK SOUND is selected in the
Bamboo control panel and your computer speakers
are on, then you will hear a “click” sound when the
pen tip is pressed hard enough to generate a button
click. Adjust your speaker volume as necessary.)
Try clicking on a folder icon by moving the screen
cursor over the icon and pressing down on the pen
tip. The folder should highlight when you press.
Tip: You can configure Windows to select when the pen is over an icon and to launch the icon with a single click.
To turn on this feature, first open a folder.
• For Windows 7 and Vista, from the ORGANIZE pull-down menu choose FOLDER AND SEARCH OPTIONS....
From the GENERAL tab select SINGLE-CLICK TO OPEN AN ITEM (POINT TO SELECT).
• For other Windows versions, from the TOOLS pull-down menu choose FOLDER OPTIONS.... From the GENERAL
tab select SINGLE-CLICK TO OPEN AN ITEM (POINT TO SELECT).
Double-clicking. Quickly tap the tablet twice in the
same place with the pen tip. This is like clicking
twice with a mouse button. Try double-clicking on a
folder icon to open it.
Tip: Set a pen button to DOUBLE CLICK. This is
easier than tapping twice with the pen tip, and is the
preferred method of double-clicking with a pen.
DRAGGING
Dragging is used to select and move objects on the monitor screen.
First point to an object. Then press the pen tip to
the tablet and slide it across the tablet surface.
The selected object will move across the display
screen.
To select text within a document, move the screen
cursor to the beginning of a text line, then drag the
pen across the tablet to highlight the text.

USING THE PEN BUTTONS
The pen is equipped with two buttons. Each button has a programmable function that is selected when
you press the button. You can use a pen button whenever the pen tip is within 7 mm (0.28 inch) of the
tablet active area. You do not have to touch the pen tip to the tablet in order to use a button.
The default button positions are:
Upper:
RIGHT CLICK
Lower:
PAN/SCROLL
Tip: Set a pen button to DOUBLE CLICK. This is easier than tapping twice
with the pen tip.
Use RIGHT CLICK to bring up application-specific
or icon-specific menus.
PAN/SCROLL lets you position a document or
image in any direction within the active
window simply by pressing the pen button and
moving the pen tip across the tablet’s active
area. As you move the pen tip, the document
or image is repositioned to follow the direction
of pen movement on the tablet. Release the
pen button or lift the pen tip from the tablet
surface when you are done.
In some application windows the document
will precisely follow the screen cursor as you
move the pen tip, while in others it will simply
move in the same general direction as the
screen cursor.
To assign new button functions, see setting the pen button functions.

WRITING AND DRAWING WITH PRESSURE SENSITIVITY
The pen responds to your hand movements, enabling you to create natural-looking pen and brush strokes.
The digital ink tools in Microsoft Windows 7, Vista, and Office 2007 or later, as well as the drawing tools in
many graphics applications, respond to the pressure you place on the pen. For example, sliders are used
in some applications to vary line characteristics (width, color, and opacity). These characteristics can be
controlled much better by the pen’s pressure sensitivity – you can vary line width, blend colors, and change
opacity with the pressure you exert upon the pen.
To write, ink, or draw with pressure
sensitivity, move the pen along the
surface of the tablet while applying
various amounts of pressure downward
on the tip of the pen. Press hard for thick
lines or dense color. Press gently for thin
lines or softer color. Note that some
applications require you first select a
pressure-sensitive tool from the
application’s tool palette.
To adjust the tip feel, see setting the tip
and eraser feel, and double-click
distance.
Visit our web site for a list of applications
that support pressure. See product
information.

33
ERASING
The pen eraser (when equipped) works like the eraser on a pencil.
You can erase intuitively and naturally in graphics
applications that support the pen eraser. When you
use the pen eraser, the application will automatically
switch to the eraser tool.
In applications that support pressure sensitivity, you
can select pressure-sensitive tools in an
application’s tool palette to vary the width and
depth of your erasures as you change the amount of
pressure you exert upon the pen.
See setting the tip and eraser feel, and double-click
distance for more information.
Use the pen eraser in Microsoft Windows 7, Vista,
and Office 2007 or later to erase notes or sketches
made with digital ink, and to select and delete text
or spreadsheet cells within an application.
Visit our web site for a list of graphics applications that support the eraser (see product information). If the
eraser is not supported in an application, you can still use the eraser for positioning, drawing, or
annotation.

EYE-HAND COORDINATION EXERCISE
This exercise is designed to retrain your eye-hand coordination for using the pen:
1. Open any graphics application. Use the line tool to draw a rectangular grid with line spacings of about
20-25 mm (3/4 to 1 inch). You can use your traditional mouse to do this.
2. Choose a free-hand tool in your application and use the pen to draw a dot at each grid intersection.
3. Draw an X at each grid intersection.
4. Clear your screen and make a simple drawing of your own. The more you use your pen, the easier
writing, drawing, and navigation will become.

the double-click speed.
A larger setting makes
double-clicking easier.
Tips:
Use a soft TIP FEEL to reach the full pressure range with a lighter touch. In some applications, a soft pressure setting
can make the pen overreact – any small press on the pen is magnified on the screen. If you experience this, try a
firmer TIP FEEL setting.
To make double-clicking easier, expand the tap area that accepts a double-click (the double-click distance).
Note: A large double-click distance may cause a delay at the beginning of brush strokes in some drawing
applications. This may also cause a delay at the beginning of a drag action or inking stroke. If you notice
such effects, try setting a smaller double-click distance and using a pen button set to double-click (see using
the pen buttons).

TESTING YOUR TABLET
1. Turn on your computer and wait until the system has fully loaded.
2. Check the connection. The tablet status LED should glow whenever the tablet is properly connected
and your computer has registered it as a USB device. If not:
•
Make sure the tablet USB cable is securely connected to an active USB port on your computer.
•
Check the tablet USB cable for damage.
•
If you are connecting the tablet to a USB hub (or hub device such as a keyboard with USB ports), be
sure the USB hub is properly connected to your computer and is active.
•
If the status LED does not illuminate after your computer is on and has finished booting up, your
USB port may be disabled. Verify that you have connected the tablet to an active USB port.
•
Connect the tablet to a different USB port or try connecting to the USB port on another computer.
3. Check touch and pen input:
•
Check touch input. Attempt to move the screen cursor by tracking your finger across the tablet
surface. Then tap to select an item. The status LED should brighten when you touch the active
area of the tablet.
If the tablet driver does not load properly, basic touch movement will be recognized but other
actions and gestures will not. If the driver does not properly load, the lower two ExpressKeys only
will function at their default settings of CLICK (bottom key) and RIGHT CLICK (2nd key up). If gestures
are not recognized and ExpressKeys do not function, insert the Bamboo Installation CD into your
computer and install the driver software for the tablet.
•
Check pen input. If your tablet is equipped with a pen and the tablet driver does not load properly,
pen input will not be available. (If you have a pen-only tablet model, you will be able to use the pen
tip to move the screen cursor and click. You will also be able to use the pen buttons to CLICK (lower
button) and RIGHT CLICK (upper button), but there will be no other pen functionality.) Insert the
Bamboo Installation CD into your computer and install the driver software for the tablet. See also
testing a pen.
4. Check the ExpressKeys (if equipped). Do a quick check by pressing each key in turn. The status LED
should brighten each time you press a key when there is no touch or pen input. Then open the Bamboo
control panel and select the TABLET tab. Click on the DEFAULT button to return to the tablet default
settings.
•
Press the upper ExpressKey to toggle touch input off and on. (For Bamboo Touch: Open your
Internet browser and click on a couple of links. Next click on the appropriate browser button to
move backwards. Then press the upper ExpressKey to move forward within the browser.)
•
Open your Internet browser and click on a couple of links. Press the second from top key to move
back within the browser.
•
Position the screen cursor over an item, such as an empty folder on your desktop, and press the
bottom ExpressKey to perform a click.
•
Position the screen cursor over an item, such as an empty folder on your desktop, and press the
second up from bottom ExpressKey to perform a right-click.
5. If any of these tests fail you may have defective hardware. See technical support options.
6. After testing, use the Bamboo control panel to reconfigure your tablet for any custom settings you may
originally have been using.

TESTING A PEN
1. First perform the procedures for testing your tablet.
2. Check the pen by opening the Bamboo control panel and selecting the PEN tab. Click on the DEFAULT
button to return the pen to its default settings. Next:
•
Touch the pen tip and then the eraser (when equipped) to the tablet active area. The status LED
should brighten each time the tip or eraser makes contact with the tablet surface.
•
Without applying pressure to the pen tip, hold the pen tip within approximately 7 mm (0.28 inch) of
the tablet surface and press each pen button in turn. The status LED should brighten each time a
pen button is pressed.
•
While still within proximity, but without touching the tablet surface, move your pen across the active
area of the tablet. The screen cursor should move in the corresponding direction on your monitor or
display screen.
3. If any of these tests fail you may have defective hardware. See technical support options.

GENERAL PROBLEMS
The computer does not have
an available USB port.
The tablet status LED does
not illuminate.
The computer does not go to
sleep when using a tablet
configured for pen input.
The screen cursor is very
erratic or jumps around when
using the tablet.
The tablet is set for RIGHT
HANDED (or LEFT HANDED), but
at the log-in screen the tablet
seems to work upside down.
The control panel opens under
the name of “Pen Tablet”, not
“Bamboo”. Also, the User’s
Manual and Tutorial are no
longer available.
Contents
Check if there is an available USB port on a USB hub device. If not
available you will need to add a USB hub or USB card.
Verify that your tablet’s USB cable is properly connected to an active
USB port. If you are connecting to a USB hub device, make sure the
hub is connected to an active USB port and that the hub is active.
When you are not using the pen, remove it from the tablet surface or
the tablet will continue to send data, keeping the computer awake.
Note: Because some metallic or other conducting objects can also
cause the tablet to send data, it is best to keep the tablet
surface clear of all objects when not in use.
On rare occasions the tablet may receive interfering radio frequencies
from a computer monitor or nearby AM radio station. If you notice
interference from a monitor, try moving the tablet at least six (6) inches
away from the monitor, or change the monitor refresh rate or monitor
resolution.
Reinstall the tablet driver from the Bamboo Installation CD and change
the default orientation of the tablet. See configuring the tablet
orientation for details.
If the Wacom software driver is uninstalled and a driver is downloaded
from the Internet and then installed, the control panel name will be set
to “Pen Tablet”. Also, the default tablet orientation will be set to righthanded and the user’s manual and tutorial will no longer be available.
When installing Bamboo for the first time, install your tablet using the
original software that came with Bamboo. You can then download and
install the latest driver update from the Internet. By installing your
tablet in this manner you will be able to set the default tablet
orientation, and the user’s manual and tutorial will be installed on your
system.

CARING FOR BAMBOO
Keep your Bamboo tablet surface and pen (when equipped) clean. Dust and dirt particles can stick to the
pen and cause excessive wear to the tablet surface. Regular cleaning with a soft, damp cloth will help to
prolong the life of your tablet surface and pen; you can also dampen the cloth using a very mild soap
diluted with water. Do not use volatile liquids, such as paint thinner or benzene, as they may damage the
plastic case.
Keep Bamboo in a clean, dry place and avoid extremes in temperature. Room temperature is best.
Also, your Bamboo tablet and pen (when equipped) are not made to come apart. Twisting the pen case
can break the pen. Taking apart the product will void your warranty.
Important: Take care to never spill liquids onto the tablet or pen. Be especially careful of getting the
tablet ExpressKeys or pen buttons, tip, and eraser (when equipped) wet – they contain sensitive
electronic parts that will fail if liquid enters them.
REPLACING THE PEN NIB
The pen nib (tip) will wear with normal use. Excessive pressure will cause it to wear sooner. Replace the
nib when it gets too short – less than 1 mm (0.4 inch) – or develops a flat point.
1. Clasp the old nib with the nib extractor, pair of tweezers, needle-nosed pliers, or similar instrument and
pull it straight out of the pen.
Nib
1 mm (0.4 inch) or less)
2. Slide the end of the new nib straight into the barrel of the pen. Firmly push the nib until it stops.
Warning: Choking hazard. Prevent children from swallowing the pen nib or button part. The pen nib
or button part may accidentally be pulled out if children are biting on them.
To order replacement parts, see ordering parts and accessories.
Important: When the pen is not in use, place it in the pen holder or lay it flat on your desk.
The eraser end of the pen should be inserted first into the loop. To maintain the sensitivity of your
pen, do not store the pen in a container where it will rest on the tip or eraser (when equipped).

PEN AND DIGITAL INK CAPABILITIES IN WINDOWS
Microsoft Windows 7 and Vista provide extensive support for pen* input. When using Bamboo with a
computer running Windows 7 or Vista, your experience is enhanced by powerful note taking, handwriting
recognition, fast navigation, and other digital inking options designed to give you quick, intuitive results
with the pen.
•
Note taking. Use the pen to jot notes and capture quick sketches in Microsoft Journal.
Journal simulates a physical notebook, but with the advantages of digital note taking – you can choose
from a variety of pen, marker, and highlighter tools, plus an eraser that is easily activated by the eraser
(when equipped) of the pen. Journal also includes a powerful search engine that can even locate your
handwritten content.
•
Handwriting recognition. Because Windows 7 and Vista include powerful handwriting recognition
capabilities, you can use the pen to quickly enter handwritten information anywhere the computer
accepts typed input. You can convert your handwritten content to typed text at any time.
•
Gestures. Use your pen to make simple gestural movements on the tablet to trigger customizable
actions for navigation, editing, and other functions. To customize your gestures, select the FLICKS tab in
the PEN AND INPUT DEVICES control panel.
•
Digital Ink in Microsoft Office 2007. Use the pen to full advantage with the enhanced digital mark-up
and inking tools available in Microsoft Office 2007 or later applications running on Windows 7 or Vista.
Found on the REVIEW tab within applicable applications, these tools provide a consistent set of inking
options. For quick access, you can add specific inking tools to the Quick Access Toolbar located at the
top of each application.
To make the most of the pen in Microsoft Windows, be sure to study the documentation that came with
your system, including the Windows training tools and Tablet PC tutorial. You can access the Tablet PC
Pen Training from the START menu by choosing ALL PROGRAMS, TABLET PC, and TABLET PC PEN TRAINING.
Note: The following workarounds in the Wacom tablet driver improve drawing performance in Windows 7
and Vista:
•
The Pen Flicks and ‘press-and-hold-to-right-click’ features are disabled in graphics applications using
the Wintab API.
•
There is no pressure sensitivity in Journal and other Ink features when both the Flicks and ‘press-andhold-to-right-click’ features are disabled in the Vista PEN AND INPUT DEVICES control panel.
* Pen features supported in all versions of Windows 7 and Vista except Windows 7 Starter and Home Basic, and
Windows Vista Home Basic.

PRECAUTIONS
WARNINGS
Do not place or leave the tablet or pen (when equipped) within reach of children. If your product is used improperly
there is a potential for accident or human injury. Prevent children from swallowing the pen nib or button part. The pen
nib, button part, or other movable parts may accidentally be pulled out if children are biting on them. Small parts,
such as the pen nib or nib refills, or pen button part can be removed and accidentally swallowed by children.
Do not use the tablet in a facility control system that requires extremely high reliability. It may cause other electronic
devices to malfunction, or other devices may cause the tablet to malfunction.
Power off your tablet in locations where/when electronic devices are not allowed. Because the tablet may cause
other electronic devices to malfunction in some locations where/when the use of electronic devices is not allowed,
such as within an airplane, be sure to turn off the tablet by unplugging the USB connector of this product from your
computer.
Do not disassemble the tablet or pen (when equipped). Do not disassemble or otherwise modify the tablet or pen.
Such action may cause heat generation, ignition, electrical shock, or other damage, including human injury.
Disassembly of the product will void your warranty.
Take note of damaged cabling. If you notice that your tablet cabling is torn or otherwise damaged, there is a potential
for product malfunction, electrical shock, or fire. Stop using the product and contact your local distributor or the
Wacom customer support center for your region.
Do not expose this product to water or other liquids. Take care to never spill liquids onto the tablet or pen (when
equipped). Exposing this product to water or other liquids may cause product malfunction or electrical shock. If the
product is exposed to water or other liquids, unplug the USB connector. If your product is equipped with a power
cord, unplug the cord from the wall outlet. Power down your computer. Then disconnect any other cables that may
remain between the tablet and your computer. Stop using the product and contact your local distributor or the
Wacom customer support center for your region.
Do not insert foreign material into the USB plug end or any other opening of this product. If a metal object or foreign
material is inserted into the USB plug or other opening of this product, it may cause the product to malfunction or
burn out, or cause electrical shock.

CAUTIONS
Do not place or use this product on an unstable surface or workspace. Do not place this product on a shaky, inclined,
or vibrating surface. It may drop or fall off, causing damage to the product or human injury.
When cleaning your tablet, power off the unit by unplugging the USB connector from between the tablet and your
computer. Electrical shock may occur if you attempt to clean this product when it is connected to your computer.
Further precautions regarding your tablet:
• If equipped with a pen, do not apply heavy stress to the pen tip, eraser, or button part. It may shorten pen tip life
or may cause the pen to malfunction.
• If equipped with a pen and a distorted or bent pen nib is used, the pen tool may operate improperly. Therefore,
do not apply excessive force when using the pen.
• If equipped with a pen, using a pen nib other than one specifically designed by Wacom for your pen input tool
may cause product malfunction.
• When using the pen holder and to avoid damaging the pen (if equipped), do not use excessive force when
inserting or removing the pen from the holder. Also, do not store the pen within the pen holder in such a way that
the pen tip, buttons, or eraser are continually depressed.
• Do not excessively rub, abrade, or apply liquid to the pen holder (if equipped). These actions may cause
threading frays or discoloration of the pen holder.
• Do not place metal objects on this product when it is in use. Metal objects placed on the tablet during use may
cause interference, improper operation, or product malfunction.

LICENCE WARRANTY CONDITIONS
(EUROPE, AFRICA AND MIDDLE EAST)
SOFTWARE LICENCE AGREEMENT
Important customer information
The scope of delivery of this product covers copyright-protected computer programs ("software"), which are the
inalienable intellectual property of WACOM Europe GmbH ("WACOM"). This software is an integral component of the
product and is also held on the associated data carrier. The software of WACOM and the associated rights of use are
not included with the purchase of this product from your retailer. WACOM grants you-the user-the right to use the
software exclusively in accordance with the conditions stipulated in this licence agreement. By purchasing this
product, you agree to the following licence conditions.
Conditions for using the software
WACOM issues the user with a personal, non-exclusive licence to use the software solely in connection with this
product and for the correct operation of the product. This licence may only be assigned to a third party in connection
with this product.
Use of this software includes the creation of permanent or temporary copies of the software by means of loading,
displaying, exporting, transferring or saving, for the purposes of exporting the commands and the data they contain or
for observing, researching or testing the software functions.
The customer may not license the software to a third party, lease, lend or in any other way provide access to the
software. The customer may not copy, change, transfer or edit the software without prior written agreement from
WACOM. The only exceptions to this are necessary procedures for creating a back-up copy and the scenarios
outlined in section 2.
The customer may not carry out any "reverse engineering", decompile or depacketise the software, or try by any other
means to discover the source code of the software. This restriction shall continue to apply after the termination of this
agreement. If the software contains interfaces to other programs that are not supported by WACOM, WACOM shall
provide the customer with the necessary information on request, as long as the customer can prove his right to use
the software and agrees to bear the copying and postage costs.
WACOM AND ITS SUPPLIERS CANNOT OFFER ANY GUARANTEE FOR THE PERFORMANCE OF THE SOFTWARE
OR FOR THE RESULTS PRODUCED THERE FROM. WACOM AND ITS SUPPLIERS OFFER NO GUARANTEES OR
ASSURANCES (EITHER EXPRESSLY OR IMPLICITLY, INCLUDING THOSE THAT MAY BE DERIVED FROM A
BUSINESS RELATIONSHIP OR FROM TRADE PRACTICE, OR FROM LEGAL PROVISIONS OR CUSTOMARY LAW)
WITH REGARD TO THE MARKETABILITY, FREEDOM FROM DEFECTS OF TITLE OR USEFULNESS OF THE
SOFTWARE.
WACOM AND ITS SUPPLIERS ACCEPT NO LIABILITY FOR DAMAGES, CLAIMS OR COSTS OF ANY KIND, NOR
FOR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, SECONDARY, ACCIDENTAL, INDIRECT OR PENAL DAMAGES, PARTICULAR
OR MISCELLANEOUS DAMAGES OR FOR DEMANDS OR INDEMNITY CLAIMS FOR REDUCED PROFITS OR
LOSSES. THIS SHALL ALSO APPLY IN THE CASE OF A REPRESENTATIVE OF WACOM BEING PREVIOUSLY
AWARE OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH LOSSES, DAMAGES, CLAIMS OR COSTS, OR DEMANDS FROM THIRD
PARTIES.

82
The existing limitations on liability shall not apply in the case of the assumption of explicit guarantees, or in case of
fraudulent behaviour on the part of WACOM, nor for damages arising from wilful or grossly negligent behaviour on the
part of WACOM, from damages leading to loss of life, personal injury or sickness or in the case of binding legal
provisions. For slight negligence, WACOM and its suppliers shall only be liable in the event of a breach of essential
contractual obligations. Liability when such an essential contractual obligation is breached is, however, limited to
damages typical to this type of contract, which WACOM must have determined at the conclusion of the contract
based on the known risks and circumstances at that time. Claims for reduced profits or expenses saved, indemnity
claims from third parties or claims for any other direct or consequential damages still cannot be asserted in this case.
The laws of the Federal Republic of Germany shall apply to this agreement. However, the applicability of the United
Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods is explicitly excluded. Krefeld is the sole place of
jurisdiction for all claims arising from this contractual relationship and all disputes between the parties resulting from
the formation, handling or termination of the contractual relationship, provided that the customer is a trader, a legal
entity under public law or a special fund under public law.
The jurisdiction agreement shall also apply for customers who do not have a general place of jurisdiction in Germany.
The jurisdiction agreement shall not apply if, due to legal provisions, a different sole place of jurisdiction must be
established for the case. Furthermore, WACOM is authorised to file a lawsuit against the headquarters of the
customer.
This licence constitutes the entire contractual agreement between the parties. It overrides all other verbal and written
contracts and agreements and may only be altered by means of a written and signed contract. Should one of the
provisions of these licence conditions be or become void, the validity of the other provisions shall not be affected, in
full or in part. Should a provision be invalid, the legally permissible regulation most closely resembling the invalid
regulation shall apply in its place.
LIMITED WARRANTY
WACOM guarantees to you, as the initial purchaser, that the product hardware, when used as intended, will remain
free from material defects and processing errors for a warranty period of TWO (2) YEARS and Cintiq products shall be
guaranteed for a warranty period of THREE (3) YEARS, commencing from the purchase date and provided that the
product was unused at the time of purchase. Defects in wear parts (e.g. pen tips) resulting from normal wear and tear
are exempt from the warranty. Furthermore, WACOM guarantees that the data carriers delivered with the product are
free from material defects and processing errors for a period of SIX (6) MONTHS from the date of purchase.
If the product-excluding any software-is discovered to be faulty it must be returned immediately to the place of
purchase in its original packaging within the warranty period together with your name, address and telephone number,
a description of the problem and a copy of the original receipt. The customer shall be liable for any possible damage
or loss of the product during transit for this purpose. Under the provisions of this warranty, WACOM only undertakes
to repair or replace the faulty product or parts at its own discretion, in cases where defects are proven and the
product is sent within the warranty period.
WACOM is not obligated to repair or replace the product if: (a) the damage to the product results from any accident,
misuse, improper use, negligence or unauthorised alteration or repair; (b) the product was not handled or stored
according to the instructions provided by WACOM; (c) the damage resulted from normal wear and tear; or d) the serial
number affixed by WACOM has been removed or rendered unintelligible.
If, when a claim made under this warranty is checked, it emerges that it is outside the permitted time period or is not
covered by the warranty or that the product is not faulty, the costs of any checks or repairs must be borne by the
customer.

Any descriptions, drawings, specifications, samples, models, notifications or similar material provided in connection
with the purchase of the product cannot be taken as an explicit guarantee that the product corresponds to or fulfils
the customer's requirements.
If this product is faulty, the purchaser shall be entitled to assert legal claims against the vendor for liability due to
defects. These legal rights against the vendor are not limited by the existing warranty. The warranty grants the
customer many additional rights under the conditions stipulated in this text.
This limited warranty shall apply if the registered office of the vendor is in the EU or in Iceland, Norway, Jersey,
Switzerland, Russia, Ukraine, Croatia, Serbia, Tunisia, Turkey, Syria, Lebanon, Jordan, Israel, Egypt, United Arab
Emirates, Iran or South Africa.
The granting of this limited warranty is subject to the laws of the Federal Republic of Germany. However, the
applicability of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods is explicitly excluded.
Krefeld is the sole place of jurisdiction for all claims arising from this contractual relationship and all disputes between

GLOSSARY
Active area. The navigation and drawing area of your Bamboo tablet where touch or pen input is detected.
See touch sensor.
Aspect. The ratio between the vertical and horizontal dimension of the tablet or display.
Click force. The amount of force you must apply to the tip of the pen for a click to occur.
Digital Ink. A broad category that typically describes handwritten content which has been created using
pen-based input on a computer. This handwritten content takes the form of sketches, ink mark-up, or
handwriting. The handwriting can optionally be converted to typewritten text or simply left alone for use in
its original format. Depending on your system and application settings, the handwritten text you make with
digital ink can be converted on-the-fly or at another time.
Double-click distance. The maximum distance (in screen pixels) that the screen cursor can move between
clicks and still be accepted as a double-click. Increasing the double-click distance makes double-clicking
easier, but may cause a delay in line strokes in some applications.
Eraser-aware application. A software application that has built-in support for the pen eraser.
These applications take advantage of the eraser in different ways, depending on what makes sense for the
application.
Expand. A motion used when navigating with touch. Touch the tablet with two fingers spaced closely
together. Then while still touching the tablet surface, move your fingers apart.
ExpressKeys. The customizable control keys located on your Bamboo tablet.
ExpressKeys, LEFT HANDED. A tablet setting where the ExpressKeys are oriented to the right of the tablet.
ExpressKeys, RIGHT HANDED. A tablet setting where the ExpressKeys are oriented to the left of the tablet.
Journal. A Microsoft Windows application that electronically simulates a physical journal pad, but with the
advantages of digital note-taking. For example, you can create quick sketches and jot handwritten notes
that can be converted to text and sent on to colleagues for digital mark-up. Journal includes a variety of
pen, marker, and highlighter tools, plus an eraser that is easily activated by the eraser end (when equipped)
of the pen. Additionally, your handwritten content is searchable within Journal.
Mapping. The relationship between the pen position on your Bamboo tablet and the cursor position on the
monitor screen.
Modifier. Modifier keys include SHIFT, ALT, and CTRL for Windows, or SHIFT, CONTROL, COMMAND, and OPTION
for Macintosh. You can customize your Bamboo tablet or pen buttons to simulate a modifier key.

Mouse acceleration. A setting that allows you to adjust the screen cursor acceleration when your pen is in
mouse mode.
Mouse mode. A method for positioning the screen cursor. When you place the pen on your Bamboo
tablet, you can move the screen cursor with a “pick up and slide” motion similar to using a traditional
mouse. This is known as relative positioning. See also pen mode.
Mouse speed. A setting that allows you to adjust the speed at which your screen cursor moves when your
pen is in mouse mode.
Nib. The replaceable pen tip.
Pan. A motion used when navigating with touch. Touch the tablet surface with two fingers and move them
in the same direction.
Pinch. A motion used when navigating with touch. Touch the tablet with two fingers spaced slightly apart.
Then while still touching the tablet surface, move or ‘pinch’ your fingers together.
Pen mode. A pen input method of positioning the screen cursor. Wherever you place the pen on your
Bamboo tablet, the screen cursor will jump to the same corresponding point on the screen. This is known
as absolute positioning, and is the default setting for the pen. Also, PEN MODE allows you to quickly
position the screen cursor without having to first find it and then move it across the desktop. See also
mouse mode.
Pixel. The smallest unit of measure on your monitor screen.
Pen input. A method of controlling a computer using the pen on your Bamboo tablet.
Pop-up Menu. A user-defined menu that displays a list of keystroke functions and other actions you can
perform. You can customize the buttons of your pen to display this menu. Available for tablet models that
are configured for both pen and touch input.
Pressure-sensitive. A quality of the pen tip and eraser (when equipped) that senses the amount of pressure
being applied. This is used to create natural-looking pen, brush, and eraser strokes in applications that are
pressure-sensitive.
Pressure-sensitive application. Any application that supports pressure-sensitive input.
Proximity. The height above the tablet active area where the pen is detected. See also positioning.
Screen cursor. The pointer on the display screen. Screen cursors come in different shapes (such as an
I-beam, arrow, or box), depending on which application you are running.
Swipe. A motion used when navigating with touch. Touch the tablet surface with two fingers and move
them in the same direction at a relatively high speed.

Tablet PC Input Panel (TIP). The Microsoft Windows 7 and Vista Tablet PC Input Panel enables you to use
your pen to create handwritten notes or work with an on-screen keyboard. The Input Panel dynamically
converts your handwriting to text. The information you create can then be inserted into other documents,
spreadsheets, or illustrations. See also pen and digital ink capabilities in Windows.
Touch input. A method of interacting with a computer using only your fingertips on the Bamboo tablet.
Touch sensor. The navigation area of your Bamboo tablet where touch input is detected. The touch sensor
resides within the active area, and does not accept pen input.
Tap. A motion used when navigating with touch. Touch and lift a single finger from the tablet.
Track. A motion used when navigating with touch. Touch and move a single finger across the tablet
surface.
Twist. A motion used when navigating with touch. Touch the tablet with two fingers spaced slightly apart
and move (rotate) them in a circular fashion, or move them in opposing directions. Alternatively, hold one
finger stationary and track your other finger around the stationary finger.
USB. Universal Serial Bus. A hardware interface standard for connecting computer peripheral devices.
USB ports support hot-plugging, which allows you to connect or disconnect a USB device without turning
off your computer.
Wintab. An interface standard used by Windows applications for receiving tablet information.
Bamboo supports all Wintab-compatible applications under Windows.
