      The reader must have an API of some description. Your best bet is to start off with the manufacturer site and see what documentation/API details are available there.

          Your best bet is to collect some information: 1. The computer are you using (Make, Model, etc.) 2. On your computer investigate all of the installed devices using the device manager (found under Start/Settings) 3. Once you've found the device in question use the context menu and open the property dialog. 4. Go through all the tabs and see what drivers and dlls are installed for the device. 5. Use all of the above information to make intelligent queries on the internet using your favorite search engine. 6. Also contact the maker of your computer if the device came preinstalled and ask them about information of said device. Cheers!

              You could try and see if it supports the Griaule SDK. There's a coding4fun article here[^] that uses it, albeit it is for another fingerprint device.

                Did find out what device is installed in your system? I'm just curious, you know. :) Cheers!
