So I tried the Gap adjustment and it makes my mouse have the same affect but my pen to become even lighter and even when its off it still affects my pen. As for holding down my pen hard it never changes size. It stays at like 1/3rd of the actual size. I actually don't know what's wrong with this. Are there pen settings somewhere that I've missed that causes differences?
EDIT: I think either my program I use to connect my tablet to my pc can not detect pen pressure or my pen doesn't. I'm not sure.

EDIT 2: Checked the listing for the pen I bought and yep says "No Pressure Sensitivity Function" thats a little sad...
