Live Scan fingerprinting is the process whereby fingerprints are scanned electronically and transmitted via a specialized computer terminal to the California Department of Justice; unlike the older process by applying inked fingerprint impressions onto a fingerprint card. The fingerprints, along with identifying information listed on the Request for Live Scan Service form are searched in the data files for matches that reveal whether there is criminal history on record for that individual, which in turn is used for identification, employment and licensing purposes.
