Differentiating SMART Technology Pens

Each SMART Tech interactive product includes one or more pens specifically designed for that device. These pens allow you to write or draw smoothly in digital ink. Using a pen from a different SMART product may lead to issues like broken ink lines or inconsistent contact detection. To ensure optimal performance, always use the pens made for your specific SMART product.

The following table shows the pens for several SMART products. Purchase your pens here once you determine what you need.
