Each Cintiq 18SX LCD panel is produced under very 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. Refer to the specifications on pages 55 and 56 for more information.
If an image area has fine striping (such as screen stripes), it may 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 you notice this action, use less pressure on the display screen when working with the pen.
When a still image is displayed for a long period of time without refreshing the screen, an after-image may
remain for a short period of time. To prevent this, Wacom recommends using a screen saver or other power
management feature.
