You mean IR, not UV...
Type 4 mice require a different optical pad than type
5.
Type 4 mice are tricky because they have to be adjusted to the grid
(parallel vs perpendicular) in order to work correctly.
There is a ps file that prints the type 4 mouse pad grid on paper.
Do I have to laminate that print, or print it on a transparency and glue
that onto an aluminum foil or print it onto a reflective foil?
Because my printed pad on plain paper don't work with type 4 mice.
Sniff. I wonder why I find so many optical mice in the garbage here.
I've used that ps file with Type 3 mice, and plain paper worked fine.
Not sure what's up with the Type 4 mice.
