If you have previously stored the FingerPrint from a target machine for which you wish to generate an Activation Code, you do not need the user of that target machine to generate a new Authorization Request Code - you can use the FingerPrint value to directly generate an Activation Code for any definition in the license.

The embedded FingerPrint value is used as input to the COM-Activator (along with other parameters) to construct the Activation Code.
