My New Tablet = Pretty Bad A*s
on February 6, 2016
Posted by: BHallock
Alright I am Happy with my tablet. At first i wasn't. there was a couple issues I was annoyed and frustrated with, how ever will a little patients and a couple phone calls and google I was able to iron out.
First issue was this tablet came with Corel Painter how ever for what ever reason it would not install at all for me, so i contacted Corel and they said its a pretty common issue for what ever reason, and that I would have to install it in sage mode with network enabled and they sent me a special install file. so contact them and they will send it to you.
Second issue< after the first night if i wasn't using the tablet and it sat for too long it seemed like the drivers uninstalled them self and i would have to keep running and installing the disk and restarting. I called Wacom and customer service had me install it as administrator, and the tech said its a windows conflict if it doesn't work and its typically has to do with having to disabling something in windows that i would have to contact Microsoft since im running windows 7. Well the admin installed worked for like a day but then back to having to reinstall it again. so I started reading on google on how to disable this pen issue cause i didnt want to call Microsoft. the pen issues which is a conflict with a little like note pad that comes on your screen when its detects a tablet. (its a stupid little tool and isnt needed its part of windows.) i found a nice little site that offers a tool to tablet users to disable it and it breaks it down a little better. >> http://viziblr.com/news/2011/8/13/fix-my-pen-makes-your-wacom-tablet-just-work-on-windows-7.html
Third issue< Corel Im not a super big fan of it but im not super familiar with it either.still a program im messing around with in my free time. Im a Graphic Designer and use all adobe programs the tablets works great for drawing solid lines and vectoring but you dont get to use the pressure sensitivity of the pen if you use like Photoshop or illustrator. Corel painter lets you use the pressure sensitivity so you can go from fine lines to dark bold lines just with how hard you press the pen on the tablet. I see the potential of Corel Painter but I dont really like the lay out of it. so i started researching and came across a pretty sweet FREE program called KRITA if your a Photoshop user you'll love it, its kinda laid out like it and very easy to get use too. I attached a drawing i did using my tablet and Krita software. https://krita.org/
After all the issues were taken care of with drivers and installation with software Im happy that I put out the $200 for my tablet.
as for the people that say theirs didn't come with software non of them do its all done online now and you are issues a key, the key is located on the black box front flap its a print of a white key with your key code printed on it, when you go online to wacom and register it walks you thru it all. you get other cool free stuff to as well.
Hope this helps
I gave a four star cause of the pain issues and my frustrations.

I would recommend this to a friend!
