Pressure setting not working with XP-Pen Fun S, with Adobe Illustrator

Hi, 
Unable to set size of brush based on the pressure setting. I can only select fixed and random. I am using the XP-Pen Fun S tablet. I reached out to the XP-Pen manufactures but they said there is an issue with Illustrator and pointed me here. Can someone please offer any fixes?
Thanks,

Hi @Ritchie25328536iajz,

 

We are sorry for the trouble caused. This is a known issue. Please try installing both the Wacom driver & XP-Pen driver, which will help you get the pen pressure. Ensure you are running the Ai v26.2.1 or above for this to work. This is a tested resolution for Non-Wacom tablets, and we have confirmed this with multiple users. Let me know if it works for you.

 

Also, I assure you the product team is working on a fix for non-Wacom tables (XP-pen, Huion, Xencelabs), and the above workaround will no longer be required.

 

I hope this helps!

 

Thanks & Regards,
Anshul Saini

The issue is with the manufacturer's input. Adobe may not recognize this tablet. What version of Illustrator,  OS, and have you updated all your tablet plugins?
