    Is the C-Pen Reader 2 suitable for use in exams?

    No, the C-Pen Reader 2 is not suitable for exam use as it includes a storage function. Most exam regulations do not permit devices with memory storage capabilities, as they could be used to retain or recall information during a test.

For the best results, it is recommended to use the pen with clear, well-spaced printed text.
