1. Sensor

Avoid swiping with your finger stiff or pressed too hard onto the sensor, and take care to ensure that the center of the fingerprint is touching the sensor before swiping. Either of these conditions may cause fingerprint reading to fail.

Check the center of the fingerprint whorl before swiping and then ensure this is swiped along the center line of the sensor.

There is a possibility of authentication failures if the finger is swiped too quickly or too slowly - follow any on-screen instructions to adjust the speed used during the swipe process.

Points to note about the Fingerprint Sensor

Please be aware of the following considerations when using the fingerprint sensor. A failure to follow these guidelines might result in damage to the sensor, sensor failure, fingerprint recognition problems or a lower fingerprint recognition success rate.

Do not scratch or poke the sensor with your nails or any hard or sharp objects.

Do not press the sensor strongly.

Do not touch the sensor with a wet finger or any wet objects - keep the sensor surface dry and free from water vapor.

Do not touch the sensor with a soiled or dirty finger as minute foreign particles of dust and dirt may scratch it.

Do not paste stickers or write on the sensor.

Do not touch the sensor with a finger or any other object which may have a build-up of static electricity on it.

Observe the following before you place your finger on the sensor whether for fingerprint enrollment/registration or recognition.

Wash and dry your hands thoroughly.

Remove static electricity from your fingers by touching any metal surface. Static electricity is a common cause of sensor failures, especially when the weather is dry.

One of the most prominent features of the Toshiba Z830 is its ultra-thin and lightweight design. Weighing in at just over 2.5 pounds and measuring less than 0.7 inches in thickness, it was one of the lightest laptops available at its time, making it an ideal choice for frequent travelers and mobile professionals. The chassis is built from a strong magnesium alloy that contributes to its durability while maintaining a sleek silhouette.

Display-wise, the Toshiba Z830 boasts a 13.3-inch LED-backlit display with a resolution of 1366x768 pixels. The screen offers good color reproduction and brightness, providing an adequate experience for productivity tasks and media consumption. The incorporation of an anti-glare finish reduces reflections, further enhancing usability in various lighting conditions.

In terms of performance, the Z830 is powered by Intel's third-generation Core processors, with options ranging from i3 to i7, depending on the configuration. This enables users to run applications smoothly, whether for business tasks, multitasking, or media editing. Accompanying the processors is a solid-state drive (SSD), which provides quick boot times and faster data access compared to traditional hard disk drives.

Connectivity options are abundant in the Toshiba Z830, featuring USB 3.0 ports, HDMI output, and an SD card reader. Additionally, it includes a full-sized keyboard which is comfortable for typing, and a responsive touchpad that supports multi-touch gestures.

On the technological front, the Z830 integrates Wi-Fi and Bluetooth capabilities, ensuring users stay connected whether at home or on the go.

Battery life is another strong aspect of the Toshiba Z830, with the ability to last for several hours on a single charge, depending on usage. This makes it suitable for long flights or extended working sessions without the constant need for a power source.

In conclusion, the Toshiba Z830 combines a portable design with robust performance, making it a commendable choice for professionals and students alike.
