About Ink Fingerprinting

Ink fingerprinting is a traditional method of capturing fingerprints using ink and paper. The individual's fingers are coated in ink and pressed onto paper, creating a physical print. These prints are then submitted to relevant authorities for background checks or identification. While accurate, this method can be messy, time-consuming, and prone to smudging compared to digital alternatives like Live Scan.

Benefits of Ink Fingerprinting

  • Expertise: Trained technicians ensure accurate, smudge-free prints that meet agency standards.
  • Quality Supplies: Use of high-grade ink and official fingerprint cards.
  • Convenience: Walk-in and appointment-based services, along with mobile options for businesses and groups.
  • Versatility: Experience handling international and specialized fingerprinting requirements.
