156 Toshiba Utilities Fingerprint Authentication Utility Fingerprint utility limitations Toshiba does not guarantee that the fingerprint utility technology will be completely secure or error-free. Toshiba does not guarantee that the fingerprint utility 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 or utility. Fingerprint Enrollment Use the Enroll or Edit Fingerprints wizard to enroll new fingerprints or to update existing fingerprint samples. NOTE It is recommended that you complete the Fingerprint tutorial before starting fingerprint enrollment. The Fingerprint tutorial shows how to achieve the highest quality fingerprint samples. To enroll a new fingerprint: 1 Click Start, All Programs, Protector Suite QL, and then Control Center. 2 Click the Fingerprints topic in the Control Center. Click the Enroll or Edit Fingerprints wizard. NOTE When Control Center is opened for the first time, you must click "Elevate administrative privileges" on the main Control Center window before you can access most of the system settings in the Control Center (see "Elevate Administrative Privileges for User" on page 161). Otherwise, the settings remain gray and unavailable. 3 Enter your credentials. 4 Complete the Fingerprint tutorial. 5 Click the button above the finger you want to enroll. 6 Swipe your finger on the reader. A sample will be created and indicated by a Fingerprint icon. 7 Repeat the previous step. Swipe the same finger on the reader two more times to create two more samples. 8 The final template will be created from these three samples.
