Do active pens work on the Inspiron 14" 2 in 1 7440?
I'd like to buy the Inspiron 14" 2 in 1 7440 but I'm afraid to do so since I'd love to have a laptop which allows me to use a pen with it. So to those who have bought this model and tried a pen such as: pn5122w and pn7522w. Have they worked?
I just saw they recently updated the models of laptops where active pens don't work and this is one, also they posted a workaround. If the previous option didn't work, did updating the BIOS or using Windows & Ink helped? Can you use them specifically after updating the BIOS?

The Inspiron 14 7440 2-in-1 Dell sales page with Touch screen shows a picture of pen usage and states, "An optional active pen allows for natural writing while taking notes or journaling.".
The Dell internal SPMD (Spare Parts Master Database) Inspiron 14 7440 2-in-1 shows =
PN5122W
PN7522W
Inspiron 2-in-1 7430/7435/7440/7445/7630 are missing the Pen Option in DPM (Dell Peripheral Manager)
