Optical USB Fingerprint Reader GNU/Linux Edition (TPE-F4500)
The TPE-F4500 fingerprint reader is a USB peripheral perfect for individual desktop users, as well as multiple users in shared environments. Where most fingerprint readers on the market lack support for GNU/Linux or offer abysmal results the TPE-F4500 fingerprint reader achieves reliable results through the use of a larger sensor and free software support. The fingerprint reader works with the primary free software fprint project, the GNOME desktop environment, and the KDE desktop environment.
To use, simply open settings and go to user settings to enroll a fingerprint for use at login and lock screen. For superior user feedback, a red “flash” indicates that a fingerprint image has been captured. Unlike with other readers there is no question as to whether or not the fingerprint reader is working or not.

- Supports GNOME and the KDE Plasma desktop
- Works with the standard free software package for GNU/Linux fprint
- Compatible with other applications such as sudo and anything else that works with fprint
- Large sensor for consistent and reliable results every time you go to login or unlock the system
- Does not rely on any OS-loaded binary blobs or proprietary drivers-no risk of losing support
