What is the difference between a Livescan site and a print-card site?

0

Some livescan systems can also be used to capture fingerprints electronically AND then print-to-card. You will see this more in states that don’t allow private enterprises to submit fingerprint records electronically. There are inherent benefits of doing this in that the livescan operator can scan once and print as many cards as needed, thus saving time and improving the process of fingerprinting overall.

Livescan sites collect fingerprints electronically via an inkless process. Print-card facilities collect “wet” fingerprints, rolling the applicant’s fingertips in ink and pressing them to a fingerprint card. Print-cards are scanned into an electronic format upon receipt by BIG. The BIG Fingerprinting Program for Banks and Credit Unions fee is the same for the Livescan and print-card processes.
