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.
Setup Fingerprint Registration
Please use the following procedure when first using fingerprint
authentication.
User's Manual
Check the condition of your finger - any conditions which have
changed since enrollment, such as injury, rough skin, and extremely
dry, wet, soiled, dirty, oily, soaked or swollen fingers, may lower the
recognition success rate. Also if the fingerprint is worn down or the
finger becomes thinner or fatter, the recognition success rate may be
lowered.
As the fingerprint for each finger is different and unique you should
ensure that only the registered or enrolled fingerprint or fingerprints
are used for identification.
Check the position and speed at which you swipe your finger across
the sensor - please refer to the preceding drawing.
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.
If Windows file encryption function EFS (Encryption File System) is
used to encrypt a file, the file cannot be further encrypted using the
encryption function of this software.
You can back up the fingerprint data or the information registered to
Web Site Passwords.
Please use Import/Export in TOSHIBA Fingerprint Utility main menu.
