Replacing a lost or damaged pen

Overview

If you need a replacement pen for your tablet, you cannot buy just any pen, even from the same manufacturer.

Selecting the right pen

You have to be careful when selecting a pen. Most tablets are only compatible with a small number of pens, and sometimes only with a single pen. To keep it simple: buy the exact same model pen that came with your tablet.

Many people accidentally buy incompatible pens and get frustrated. Avoid this by doing a little research. For a detailed breakdown of compatibility, see Pen compatibility.

Instructions

• First, find the model number of your tablet: Finding the model number of your drawing tablet

• Then go to your tablet brand's website and search for your tablet. It should list the compatible pen model number. If you cannot find what you are looking for, contact customer support.

• If you have a Wacom tablet, look at this compatibility list: Wacom pen compatibility

ALWAYS verify with customer support

No matter what is written on any site, I highly encourage you to always contact customer support for your tablet and ask them to verify which pen models are compatible.
