Setting up your work area
The Cintiq 20WSX pen display and stand were designed to provide you with the widest possible range
of flexibility and ergonomic work approach. The design allows you to quickly adjust Cintiq to a different
position whenever the need arises. You may want to experiment with different height adjustments to
determine which best fits your particular working style and tasks.
As you work with Cintiq, you can rest your hand lightly on the display screen, just as if it were a drawing
board or sheet of paper.
To minimize fatigue, organize your work area so you can work comfortably. Position Cintiq, the Grip
Pen, and your keyboard so they are easily accessible without unnecessary reaching. The pen display
tablet and any other monitors should be positioned so you can view them comfortably with a minimum
of eyestrain.
Here are some other points to keep in mind:
•
Take short breaks between tasks to stretch and relax your muscles.
•
Use a gentle grip when working with the pen.
•
Alternate tasks throughout the day.
•
Minimize awkward postures and repetitive movements that cause discomfort.
•
Alternate between different modes of use.

may vary. Always obtain competent medical advice to determine the most appropriate treatment for your
specific situation.
By adjusting the Cintiq stand to its lowest
position, the pen display unit can be freely
rotated on the display stand without touching
the desktop. In this position, Cintiq emulates
a traditional animator’s table and gives you
the freedom to rotate the display unit to any
angle for the greatest comfort and accuracy
of stroke while drawing or editing images.
Adjusting the Cintiq stand to its highest
position is common when your work requires a
large amount of keyboard input. This position
is also useful when presenting your work to
co-workers or clients.
