How can I get the serial number of my smartpen?

You can use one of the methods below to get your smartpen serial number and add it to your livescribe.customerservice@anoto.com email:

Use the box.

If you just purchased your smartpen, look at the outside edge of the box the smartpen came in.

The sticker will show the serial number in the format of "AYE-XXX-XXX-XX". 

If you are unable to obtain the serial number from the box:
