Fingerprint utility limitations
TOSHIBA does not guarantee that the fingerprint utility technology will be
completely secure or error-free, or that it will accurately screen out
unauthorized users at all times. TOSHIBA is not liable for any failure or
damage that might arise out of the use of the fingerprint software.
The fingerprint sensor compares and analyzes the unique
characteristics in a fingerprint. However, there may be instances
where certain users are unable to register their fingerprints due to
insufficient unique characteristics in their fingerprints.
The recognition success rate may differ from user to user.
Setup Fingerprint Registration
Please use the following procedure when first using fingerprint
authentication.
In use, the fingerprint authentication system will use the same
username and password as defined within the Windows operating
system. If no Windows password has been configured, you must do
this before starting the fingerprint registration process.
This sensor has the memory space for at least twenty fingerprint
patterns. You might be able to register more fingerprint patterns
depending on the sensor memory usage.
1. Click Start -> All Programs -> TOSHIBA -> Tools & Utilities ->
Fingerprint Utility, or click the Fingerprint utility icon in the Taskbar.
2. The Enroll screen is displayed. Enter the current account password
into the Windows Password field. If no Windows password has been
configured, you will be asked to configure the new logon password.
Then click Next.
3. Click the non-enrolled finger icon above the finger you want to register
and then click Next.

method. When you have finished practicing swiping your finger, click
Next.

succeeds, "Enrollment succeeded! Do you want to save this
fingerprint?" message box will appear. Click OK.

you enroll one more fingerprint.". Click OK and repeat Step 3, 4, 5 and
