What Is Ink and Roll Fingerprinting?
Ink and roll fingerprinting is a traditional capture method in which each finger is inked and rolled on a physical fingerprint card to record the ridge pattern. Some employers, licensing boards, courts, and government organizations request a paper card instead of an electronic live-scan submission.
Houston Fingerprint can capture prints on a standard FD-258 card or on an agency-specific card that you bring. Follow the receiving organization’s current instructions because it decides which form and submission method are acceptable.
For related guidance, see our FD-258 fingerprint card page, FBI background-check support page, or appointment page.
