What is a Wacom DTU Pen Display and how is it different from a regular graphics tablet?
Do Wacom DTU Pen Displays have touch functionality, or are they exclusively pen-based?
The touch capabilities vary by Wacom DTU model. It’s important to differentiate:
- The Wacom DTU-1031AX is equipped with 10-finger multi-touch support directly on its screen, allowing for interactive gestures.
- However, models like the Wacom DTU-1031X, Wacom DTU-1141B, and Wacom DTU-1631 are pen-only displays. They rely solely on the dedicated Wacom pen for all input, offering precise control without finger touch interaction. Please confirm the specific model’s specifications if multi-touch is a key requirement for your operations in Tanzania, Kenya, or Ghana.
