Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Live Scan is a system that electronically captures a person’s fingerprint impressions as digitized images. Prior to the invention of Live Scan a few decades ago, legacy fingerprinting method used black ink and thick cards to capture the person’s fingerprint impressions. This legacy method was messy and produces inconsistent qualities and results.

Modern Live Scan technology is far superior to the inked fingerprint cards and has a much simpler process with lower rejection rate. However, due to the cost of Live Scan systems and consumer adoption; fingerprinting industry does not have adequate Live Scan location to service every applicant throughout the country.
