Usage tips

For drawing, use the pressure-sensitive pen to vary your strokes across the active area, for everyday computer tasks, the pen can also work as a pen mouse. Set the four express keys to shortcuts you use often, such as tools in your drawing workflow, to reduce trips through menus. The compact surface suits focused edits, note-taking, signing documents or demonstrating work during remote learning. It takes a different approach from a larger drawing tablet: the H430P prioritises a smaller working footprint, making it easier to fit into a crowded desk setup or carry between work and study spaces.
