Using the fingerprint reader
Integrated fingerprint readers are available on select computer models. In order to use the fingerprint
reader, you must set up a user account and password on the computer. This account allows you to
log on to your computer with a swipe of a designated finger. You may also use the fingerprint reader
to fill in password fields on Web sites and other programs that require a logon. For instructions, see
the fingerprint reader software Help.
After you register your computer, you can set up a single sign-on service that allows you to use your
fingerprint reader to create credentials for any application that requires a user name and password.
For the location of the fingerprint reader on your computer, see “Getting to know your computer.”
