3.2 Connecting to Your Computer

The XPPen Artist Pro 19 Gen2 is not a standalone tablet and requires connection to a computer (desktop or laptop) to function. Ensure your computer meets the minimum system requirements for optimal performance.

USB-C Connection (Full-featured USB-C Port)

If your computer has a full-featured USB-C port that supports video output (DP Alt Mode) and power delivery, you can connect the drawing display using a single USB-C to USB-C cable. If the display does not power on, connect the PD Power Adapter to the drawing display via another USB-C to USB-C cable.

3-in-1 Cable Connection

For computers without a full-featured USB-C port, use the provided 3-in-1 cable. Connect the HDMI and USB-A ends of the 3-in-1 cable to your computer. Then, connect the USB-C end of the 3-in-1 cable to the drawing display. Ensure the PD Power Adapter is connected to the drawing display via a USB-C to USB-C cable for power.
