Connecting a Wacom Intuos (serial port version) to a 1200

fxgogo · 04 February 2020, 23:36

Hi all, I have a couple of spare Wacom Intuos tablets, the old serial ones and I thought I would try connecting one of them to my Amiga 1200.

Does anyone have a resource they can point me to, to get this done?

There is a driver for Wacom tablets on Aminet, try if it works.
You may also need 25pin to 9pin converter.
I have Wacom Artpad II and the driver works with it. I don't know about Intuos.

I so wish I had though of this, I had an old Wacom pen partner serial / ps/2 but unfortunately threw it out when Windows / pc hardware no longer supported it/

The cool thing about the Artpad II, you can use Samsung tablet pen with it. Great if you lost your original pen. (It's a specific version)

Awesome, thanks amiman99, will try that out. I hear you Pixelfill. My wife would of loved me to throw them out, and I almost did when we moved to the U.K. Luckily I have two 9pin tablets safely tucked away. I think they were an A5 and an A6 tablet.
