For Macintosh systems, a Cintiq color profile will be added to your computer’s color management
system during the tablet software driver installation process. To activate this color profile for use
with Cintiq, you may need to select the Cintiq 21UX profile in the system’s ColorSync Utility control
panel. For more details, see the color management information in your operating system and
application documentation.
• As necessary, configure the display control panel settings for the proper size and color resolution.
The maximum (native) resolution of the Cintiq 21UX is 1600 x 1200 pixels with 24 bit color.
The display size and color resolution may be constrained by the capabilities of your video card.
See the video card manufacturer’s documentation for details.
For Windows: If you are using Cintiq as a secondary display, you may first need to enable Cintiq in
your Display Properties control panel.
• If using analog (VGA) mode, you may want to fine-tune the display. See Adjusting clock and phase
(VGA only) on page 39 and Adjusting the display beginning on page 35.
• After the display portion of Cintiq is working to your satisfaction, move on to Step 2: pen tablet
installation to install the pen tablet portion of Cintiq. For troubleshooting tips, see page 41.
Notes:
Each Cintiq LCD panel is produced under stringent quality standards. Production techniques cannot
guarantee an absolutely perfect TFT display, and some panels may exhibit a certain number of pixels that
show an incorrect color. See the specifications on page 63 for more information.
If an image has fine striping (such as screen stripes), it may appear to flicker or display a moiré pattern.
Do not apply excessive pressure on the display surface, it may cause the appearance of a moiré or pooling
pattern. If this occurs, use less pressure on the display screen when working with the pen.
When a still image is displayed for a long period of time, an after-image may remain for a short time.
To prevent this, Wacom recommends using a screen saver or other power management feature.
Important: To extend the life of the backlight, set your computer’s power management to turn off
the display when it is not in use for extended periods of time.
