Is it possible to recalibrate the screen/pen (alien.top)

I've noticed while writing on the display, in certain areas, the writing appears to be a bit off to the side when writing compared to where I'm drawing. Is there an easy way to fix this? Tried restarting/reset.

I haven't experienced this, but I've seen several posts here from people who have.

If you have one of the reMarkable stylii which magnetically attach to the tablet's right side, you may be able to slowly "wipe" the stylus across the display several times to "reset" any static magnetic fields which may have built up on the screen over time.

There are also "degaussing" devices for sale on amazon which can do the same thing, however some of those are a lot stronger than you would need so if you do this, be careful not to cause more damage than you're trying to fix.

The marker wipe is not a bad idea, I might give that a try. I'm too nervous to try any stronger magnets in case it damages the device. Thanks for the tip!
