All Wacom products can be safely cleaned with 70 or 75 percent isopropyl alcohol rubbing alcohol when applied to a soft lint free cloth. Lightly wipe the moistened cloth on the hard, nonporous surfaces of your Wacom product, such as the display, or other exterior surfaces. Don't use bleach. Avoid getting moisture in any opening, and don't submerge your Wacom product in any cleaning agents. See below for additional tips or please contact your regional Wacom customer service team.

Precision pen performance with a slimmer Wacom Pro Pen featuring 8, levels of pressure sensitivity, tilt-response and virtually lag-free tracking. Exceptional pen performance: Wacom Pro Pen 2 features 8, levels of pressure sensitivity, tilt-response and virtually lag-free tracking.
Built for travel, the slim and lightweight Wacom Wireless Keyboard easily slides into the Wacom Soft Case or a laptop bag for easy portability. A 1, x 1, display, a Pro Pen 2 and 72 per cent colour gamut are all fairly standard features, but the Wacom Cintiq 16 boasts 8, levels of pressure sensitivity, the ability to use the newer Pro Pen 3D and very minimal parallax.
On its release, it was the cheapest in the pen display range, though now there is another option: the Wacom One, which is aimed at beginners. Clearly, Wacom is looking to take on the growing market of cheaper Wacom alternatives that has developed over the last few years: Huion, XP-Pen and so on. These companies are producing excellent pen display and graphic tablets, and have found a loyal fan base thanks to their much cheaper price points.
Most competitor pens top out at 2, levels of pressure sensitivity, compared to its 8, The display is It has a TFT thin film transistor liquid crystal display LCD and, rather than an etched glass screen, this one has an anti-glare textured overlay. The onscreen feel is a very personal choice and if you love that 'sliding on glass' feel that you get with Pro models and the iPad Pro, this model is not for you. It has a colour colour gamut of 72 per cent as opposed to 94 per cent or higher as stated for the Cintiq Pro and the Artisul D16 pen display.
That's certainly going to put a certain group of user off, perhaps pro photographers or those working in the higher end of the design market. There are flip out legs on the rear of the Cintiq, which allow you to work at a degree angle. As with the larger and Pro model, there is no stand, but Wacom has created one for this range.
The Pro Pen 2 has always delivered in terms of sensitivity and build quality. In that case, backlighting or a component that gives off its own field could disrupt the pen's magnetic field. As such, all metal or problem parts must be tightly shielded to block out the field. The metal frame around the LCD screen -- which undoubtedly affects magnetic fields -- is accounted for in the control board, which recognizes a "weak" signal from the pen and corrects it so it follows a predictive course.
Now that we know how they work, let's familiarize ourselves with the many different tablet models that Wacom offers -- 13, to be exact. All the tablets fall under three lines, each of which has distinct features that appeal to specific audiences. First, we'll look at two lines of tablets that Wacom advertises as most appropriate for "creative professionals.
First up is the Intuos Tablet. The Intuos5 comes in small An extra-large Intuos4 is available, but it loses some features. These have the look of a traditional design tablet, meaning a matte-looking surface you "draw" on while watching your own computer screen all devices connect through USB and a pretty standard software download.
The Intuos is multi-touch capable, which means you can navigate with your fingers and you can touch a key that will easily display your tablet settings on your computer screen. With customized ExpressKeys buttons at the bottom of the tablet that give "shortcuts" to functions and applications like SketchBook Express, Wacom touts the Intuos line as a good option for a professional working in design.
Another tablet that's geared toward professionals is the Cintiq line. These come in a inch Setting them apart from the pack are their LCD screens, which allow you to draw, write or design directly on the screen. It's the same technology -- pen and all -- but with the benefit of an LCD screen.
As you might surmise from the price points, these are highly advanced tablets that are primarily going to be used by professionals who need the control of traditional art tools but in a digital format.
Adobe Photoshop and Adobe Lightroom, among other traditional design applications, are bundled with them. But maybe you're just exploring graphics tablets for the first time or are using them outside of work? Next, we'll check out a line that might suit you. This is the tablet for your average design geek or burgeoning artist. The line has four different models, and while Intuos and Cintiq were designed to be used in many ways, the Bamboo tablets are fairly tailored to specific areas of interest.
For those who are a bit more interested in capturing their art or design digitally, both the Splash and the Connect would be a simple, bare-bones tablet. The Bamboo Connect is as basic as you can get: It lets you sketch, write and generally work with what Wacom refers to as "visual communication" tools. The Bamboo Splash is nearly the same; in fact, apart from a different application that comes with it -- the painting and drawing software AirRage -- it's identical.
Having an extra application probably makes the Splash a better deal, as the price point of the Connect and Splash is exactly the same.
The Bamboo Capture is attempting to, well, capture the photography audience. With Adobe Photoshop and multi-touch capability, this tablet is designed to easily zoom, airbrush, correct or modify digital images.
While it does have features like Nik Color Filters that are helpful for photography and digital images as well as SketchBook, it doesn't include the painting and drawing software that the Splash is more focused on. The Bamboo Create is like the wise leader of the Bamboo team.
With an active area of almost 9 inches compared to the 6 inches the other models offer , it's physically larger. It combines most of the features in the other Bamboo applications Adobe Photoshop and Sketchbook Express with some extras of its own Corel Painter. With multi-touch capability, it's the tablet for someone who knows their digital stuff but maybe doesn't need some of the more professional features of the Intuos.
Or the added cost. As we've talked about, Wacom tablets are marketed to many different audiences. The first market is, not surprisingly, creative professionals. From graphic designers to product developers, there's a Wacom tablet that just might make your job easier. Wacom touts the Cintiq system, for instance, as a valuable tool for animation professionals, with its pressure-sensitive pen to vary line thickness and the immediacy of working on screen.
They also make a point of saying that those old, hand-drawn storyboards no longer need to be scanned in but are right at your fingertips. For graphic designers, the Intuos and Cintiq tablets provide a more "pen-and-paper" feel than, say, working with a mouse.
The shortcuts offered, like ExpressKeys or even the expediency of drawing as opposed to pointing and clicking, are also touted as time savers.
