--------------------
Hi Guys! I'm Jey, I'm here to help take some load off of draw2much and will be here to help you with your Windows 8/8.1/10 UC-Logic/Monoprice/Huion/Yiynova issues!
NOTE: I JUST DELETED MUCH OF THE FAQ, I WILL BE FILLING IT BACK OUT WITH NEW INFO AS TIME PASSES.

Now, UC-Logic technology is used in many brands, including MonoPrice, Huion, and SOME Yiynova tablets and screens. These tablets require a battery as Wacom has patented there battery-less technology. Not to worry, these batteries last months at a time, mine lasted about a year of doodling and scribbling. They are pretty light too.
Ifyou want, you can get a battery-less pen from Huion's website (it's rechargeable)

Many alternative tablet brands, including MonoPrice, Huion and SOME Yiynova tablets and screens use UC-Logic digitizer technology.
The main difference between these tablets and Wacom is:
1) Lack of Eraser (set a hotkey on the tablet to erase)
2) Pen battery

You may think "eww the battery will be heavy"
Nope.
The battery acts as a good weight and allows the pen to sit more naturally in you hand and is better for new tablet users (in my opinion)

Other than that, everything's the same (well...other than the fact if SO much cheaper.)

but other than that, LETS BEGIN!

"I just bought this Monoprice/Yiynova tablet and the pressure sensitivity is horrible"
There default pens for monoprice and yiynova (and possibly others) aren't that great, You have two options get the Monoprice Replacement Pen (I use one of these) or get the Huion Pen.
I personally suggest the Huion pen; It is avaliable in Battery and Rechargeable flavors. If you are looking for an Intuos Style pen, The Huion Rechargeable is the way to go thanks to it's light weight.
The Monoprice pen is also a good option, however, it is a little short which may make the pen feel heavy even though it isn't.
Huion Tips with pen holder: www.huion-tablet.com/product/p… You can get the same product on ebay for only $9 free S&H
JUST IN! YOU CAN BUY HUION NIBS FROM EBAY! ($8 for 10 free S&H)
--Monoprice nibs are compatable with the Huion pens (Info taken form Huion site) and are less than a dollar**. They are a little more rounded at the end and fit a bit tight...The Huion has a pointier tip and you might like that!(These tips last forever it seems...almost a year and I'm still on my first)
**Monoprice shipping alone is a bit over $7 so you should just get the correct tips/nibs anyways!

to anyone else looking to get their monoprice 10x6 tablet working on windows 10, photoshop 2019, these were my issues and the process that worked for me today. i am not computer savvy and this was the result of many trials and errors and i was about to give up when it finally worked after over 8 hours of driver downloading, testing, computer rebooting, and searching for solutions on the internet, etc. i'm making this comment here in the hopes that it helps even just one person. i was about to order a different graphics tablet.


original problem -
tested several monoprice drivers - no pressure detection in photoshop

1 uninstalled drivers, rebooted comp

2 dled and installed === huion h610pro8192 driver ===
(There are like 3 different h610 drivers scattered across their page, be careful)
www.huiontablet.com/support/
direct dl - driver.huion.com/driver/Win/Hu…

new problem - cursor was still stuck on the left side of screen, would slide up and down but not move across the rest of the screen.

3 keeping the huion driver, also installed ===  PID 6251 6815 6814 5553 5552 5551 Complete Graphic Tablet Software and Drivers ===
www.monoprice.com/home/driverd…
direct dl - downloads.monoprice.com/files/…

(this driver still worked even though this model is PID 10594 and not specifically  listed for it. im not going to test the other monoprice drivers but feel free to do so yourself and document your own results if you choose to try)

result
functional monoprice tablet with pressure detection in photoshop

kindest regards and best wishes everyone
