This is the Reader on my laptop:

Bus 003 Device 003: ID 04f3:0c4c Elan Microelectronics Corp. ELAN:ARM-M4

And I can't find an step by step way to make it work on Ubuntu.

In Fingerprint Activation on Ubuntu 18.04, they talk about iafilatov's libfprint for a ELAN reader on a HP laptop, but don't specify exactly what to do for a regular user (and not an IT professional) such as me.

So I couldn't really make it work, since I couldn't understand what to do and there is no option on Settings to enable or disable it.

Not Possible

Sorry, but this driver doesn't have Linux support and will never likely have because the vendor doesn't support it.

You can see the driver support in this website - Gitlab link

I also have a HP Pavillion laptop and my fingerprint scanner doesn't work in Linux. But no problem, that's just optional.
