Wacom implemented the following additional changes and improvements:

  • Resolution of issues around rebooting, fast logins, fast user switching, wake from sleep or use of computers with solid state memory.
  • Improved preferences file handling and management.
  • New four-point calibration for all Cintiq models.
  • Support for importing Expert Settings for Cintiq products.
  • Resolution of issues with the reset to defaults function.
  • Numerous other bug fixes and improvements.

IMPORTANT:

  • USB tablet required.
  • Serial tablets are not supported. The recommended driver for serial tablets on Vista 32 bit, XP 32 bit and 2000 is version 6.05-7.
  • Windows 2000 is not supported. Driver version 6.05-7 is recommended for Windows 2000.

Pen input features in Windows 7 and Vista

  • On Windows 7 and Vista, installing the driver will activate the pen input functions available within Windows and Office 2007 (see www.wacom.com/vista/VistaPenExperience.pdf for details).
  • The Windows 7 and Vista Flicks and Press-and-hold-to-right-click features are disabled in most graphics applications (all that use the Wintab API). This is a workaround to improve drawing performance in these applications when those features are on.

General notes

  • Tablet PC support: When using Wacom professional driver version 6.1.5 or later on a Tablet PC with Wacom pen technology, upgrade the Tablet PC pen driver to version 7.0.1-4b or later (go to www.wacom.com/productsupport/select.cfm and select "Tablet PC" as the tablet model).
    Otherwise the Tablet PC pen will not support pressure sensitivity in graphics applications.
  • Consumer tablet support: This driver supports only the professional tablets listed above. For concurrent use of a consumer Wacom tablet, you need to install a separate Pen Tablet driver v 5.2.3 or later. These drivers can be added or removed independently of each other. (It is good practice to check the driver release dates and install the older driver first, followed by the newer one.)
  • To uninstall a driver, go to Start - Control Panels and select "Programs and Features" (Vista & newer) or "Add or Remove Programs" (XP). Find the entry for the Wacom Tablet driver in the list of applications, and then select the Uninstall button located at the top of the application list.
    Restart your computer before installing a new driver.
  • To remove the preferences file and restore all default settings, open Start – All Programs – Wacom Tablet – Tablet Preference File Utility. Then select to remove the preferences file(s). You must authenticate yourself as an administrator to be able to remove all users' preferences.
