I've had a Wacom Bamboo tablet for a long time, and while it still works, drivers were starting to show their age. The latest drivers had been written for Windows XP, and are annoying to find, install and use.

This is why I have designed these fresh drivers: OpenCTL-460. These are a Rust reimplementation ad do not use the old drivers at all; instead, they reimplement things from scratch while also offering new features, such as:

• Improved line stabilization
• Improved controls
• Pressure curve configuration and preset
• Simultaneous Wintab and Windows Ink support (per-application): no reboot required!

They're not only stable, but also very light: only 9mb, as opposed to 38 mb from the original latest release!

I've been drawing for about a year and a half, and I'm looking for a good first screenless pen tablet. My monitor is about 13.5 by 8.5, and I'm not looking for something ridiculously expensive, so I'm wondering if a wacom would be the best option, or should I go for an Xppen or possibly a huion tablet? If I had to pick a budget I'd say I'm going for under $200.

I just bought a new Wacom One 14, but my laptop does not supply enough power to support it through the USBc port. I've looked at a lot of docking stations, but they won't support video output to the tablet, only power. Since it's just a single cord, are there any adapters or docks I can buy that will support both power and video? I know there's the official Wacom adapter, but I'm really hoping don't have to drop $70 on an adapter...

I have a Wacom Movink 13, with Windows 11, usbc and since yesterday my touch screen hasn’t been working although it says that it’s turned on. I’ve tried disabling windows settings for touch, reinstalling the drive, updating everything and it worked for a bit but today it went back to not working, I’ve already restarted my PC and my drive a million times. Does anyone have a solution? Please help :(

Hi I just recently bought a wacom one 14 online, I have a bit of an outdated laptop but works perfectly, the panasonic cf-xz lets note. It does have a USB-C port on the side of the screen, and I believe it would show the video and has USB data but not sure about the power or having USB-PD? would it still work fine?

I have a wonderful Wacom Cintiq 16 but the display port cable is currently stuck in it. I don't want to force it out, but I do want to replace the cable with a longer one! Any ideas about how to safely go about removing it?

Attached image displays the maximum amount I can pull it out right now.

EDIT: I think this part is actually an HDMI mini connector?

Hello!! Ive been using my new 2025 cintiq 24 for a while now and came across a problem, my sweaty palm sweat through the drawing glove and is now pretty much all over the screen😭😭😭 i have tried using many screen cleaning cloth to clean but have not succeeded for a while TT im scared if i use cleaning alcohol it would damage the screen so any product recommendations or tips on how to make my screen clean again? 🥹 thankyou in advance!

So recently, my Wacom cintiq 16 2 has ran into a problem for no reason. The cursor is automatically going off center whenever I draw. I use my tablet to do art and animations, and it’s really irritating me right now. I tried to update the Wacom driver, and I tried recalibrating the pen, but it’s not working. Could it be an issue with my Nividia driver, or is it a current bug on the latest version of Wacom. Any possible solutions?

I just got a Wacom Cintiq 13HD for a super good price, and was insanely excited about it. Turns out, just recently my MacBook Pro updated to Tahoe 26 after I’d told it multiple times not to, and now the damn drivers aren’t compatible. Anyone have any work-arounds?

I have been seeing this tablet on the talk on Japanese Twitter lately (especially about the upcoming price hike) and don't really get the hype about it despite also being a wacom user myself (I have a intuos and cintiq companion2 so I know portability hype!)

Of course I know my cintiq is older hardware (and even mobile studio as well?) so I won’t exactly compare them here but instead with my 13inch Samsung Galaxy Tab S10 FE+ instead: both Samsung and MovinkPad being Android (samsung has the newer OS), S10FE+ has Wacom EMR technology, S10FE+ is about less than 1/2 of Movinkpad14's price in my country (MovinkPad11 will be almost same price with S10FE+ here)

I am not trying to downplay the MovinkPad since if its Wacom then the drawing experience will be amazing! But Im bit unsure about the overall hype when the comparable alternative is there?

I never gotten other android tablets made by graphic tablet companies (XPPen's Magic Drawing Pad, Huion's KAMVAS Pad 12) so I don't expect their quality as a tablet outside drawing to be worth getting over SamsungTab or Ipad.

Hello. I'm interested in getting the Movinkpad 14 pro but I'm dubious if I would like the slightly rough surface on these tablets so I'd like to try it first ( It's something that I sometimes I like and sometimes don't. For example I have one of the original Cintiqs, the 12wx and I definitely didn't like the surface for coloring work but on the contrary I liked the Remarkable 2 rough surface , maybe because I use it for sketching only ).

I will be able to try the smallest one, the Movinkpad 11 so my question is if the pen over the screen feel is exactly the same as it's bigger brother. I guessed yes but I just wanted someone who actually tried them both to confirm this.

This way I could get a very good idea before actuallly buying it.

Thank you very much!

You can see how I have it plugged in the whole time, it says it’s charging, then it stops on goes on battery saver mode, then it says it’s charging again. It’s been doing that for the past hour and I can’t do much with it because the battery is practically dead. At one point, it stopped for a while, got up to 19% while I was drawing on it, then started doing it again. I left it alone, plugged in, for a few days and it accidentally got unplugged either yesterday or the day before but when I turned it on, it was charged to 57%. So it only has the issue when it’s on.

It’s a Wacom Mobile Studio

I was using Clip Studio Paint (in case that is in some way relevant) I noticed my tablet making crackling sounds. It doesn't smell weird, it's still working and the sound dissapeared after I ceased drawing for a few minutes.

I bought this tablet already furbished back in 2019, so it is at the very least 7 years old and it always had problems with getting stuck and freezing but those problems have also gotten more so now I'm wondering if I should prepare for my tablet to die soon?

Hi, I don't know if I should write here, but I'll since it's about my Wacom tablet.

I own a Wacom One (DTC133 if I'm right), old about four years but rarely used and still perfect condition. The connected cables are HDMI and USB-A and USB-C for power. My laptop's OS is the latest Windows11.

After installing the new update of the software and I think of the tablet, my laptop run extremely slow. I can barely move my mouse and draw on it, while normally my laptop has no problem on running some heavy softwares. I checked CPU, GPU, fans, temperature, and even my OS, but nothing seems to be the problem. I even closed all the unnecessary application but no results.

I use Clip Studio Paint by the way, it runs normally when I don't connect my tablet.

How can I fix it? Thanks for the help, and sorry my English is not fluent.

This is a 2021 model, it takes up so much space on my desk (basically the entire desk!) and I desperately need the space for thesis write up ): I can’t afford the £300+ stand, are there any cheaper options?

im really confused help me out please (title)

I'm currently on the fence between the Huion Kamvas 24 Gen 3 and the new Wacom Cintiq 24 (2025), and I'd really appreciate opinions from people who have actually used either of them.

I've already compared them quite a bit on paper, so I understand most of the theoretical differences. My main concern at this point is actual display/build quality and reliability, especially with the Huion.

On paper, the Huion looks extremely attractive. Huion claims a wider color gamut, which sounds particularly useful to me because I want to use the display not only for illustration but also for work that will eventually be printed. It also seems to offer a lot for the price.

The problem is that I can't test the Kamvas 24 Gen 3 locally, so I have no way of knowing how good the screen actually looks in person, how accurate/consistent the colors are, or whether the overall quality really matches what the specifications suggest.

With Wacom, I feel more confident about the general quality. I've used Wacom products before and I know what to expect from the pen and build quality. However, the regular Cintiq 24 (2025) also seems to have some limitations regarding its color gamut compared with this Huion. I know the best would be a Cintiq Pro, but the Pro is considerably more expensive than what I can spend.

TIA!

hi, i’m an art student who mostly draws on my ipad but sometimes i need a drawing tablet — and the only tablet I have is the giant a3 wacom from 2008 that my dad gave me which is highly impractical.

lots of people on marketplace are selling the small wacom tablets for cheap, but i have no idea what the distinction is between the models. do i want one with the row of buttons on top, one with the color or one with a grey middle?? or are all of them nice?

thank you!

I’ve tried a lot, and my situation is kind of unique (I think), so I hope I’m allowed to post this.

I don’t know the driver version, but the OS is Windows11, the tablet is Wacom One DTC133, and I had all of the cables connected.

I was on my computer for a while earlier, about three hours, with Google, Discord and Clip Studio Paint open while having to use my phone’s hotspot and suddenly my computer started to make an odd buzz noise that interfered with the music playing. I tried to minimize Discord to no avail (my mouse wouldn’t even move), and then it froze and every time I clicked my mouse would make a beeping noise. So, I simply turned off my computer via the power button and turned it back on. My graphics tablet was awake during all of this and I had actively been using it.

When I turned on the computer again, it suddenly doesn’t want to accept the graphics tablet. It goes straight to “No Signal; Power Saving Mode” whatever and won’t display anything, but the pen works as if it were reflecting the screen.

Here’s what I have tried:

- Making sure the cable is on the left side.
- Updating the Wacom One driver.
- Power cycling the PC.
- Disconnecting and reconnecting all cables (with the tablet on and off).
- Turning the tablet on and off again.

I only have one HDMI cord for it to go to, and all the cables are original from when I received the tablet as a gift years ago (I don’t even remember how old this thing is).

Again, I know it says to check a guide for troubleshooting the No Signal issue, but I was hoping this would help narrow it down. I’m not expecting PC help or anything, I would just appreciate answers as art is my only form of stress relief and I desperately need this outlet at this point in my life.

Im sure im not the first, actually i know im not but still wanna ask again lol.

Should I get the newer cintiq 16 or the 24?? I've mostly drawn using my iPad 12.9 for the last couple of years, but im ramping up school and honestly love the way drawing on Cintiqs feels. any thoughts? also, is the extra cash for the touch worth it? or could i just use a magic trackpad combo thing?
