Fingerprint Authentication Utility

(Available on certain models.)

The fingerprint authentication utility can be used to replace the

keyboard-based user password authentication system when booting

up.

The fingerprint authentication utility can also be used for user

logon. The user’s fingerprint is read; if the system recognizes the

fingerprint, the user is automatically logged on.
