Problems with SoftwareSerial.h and fingerprint sensor

ok, so i've tried to not use softwareserial.h using this:

Adafruit_Fingerprint finger = Adafruit_Fingerprint(&Serial1);

but i dont receive or send any data, may there be a problem with the adafruit library?
i've changed Serial1 for Serial to see if there is any data transmission but there aint any.
