Zippy’s Live Scan provides traditional ink card fingerprinting for businesses and individual applicants that need this service. Our FBI Ink Card Fingerprint service is provided to our applicants who need to obtain a nationwide background check from the FBI, and those who need to send their fingerprint images to states outside of California. We provide the highest quality ink printing available for your ID cards. A standard 8″x8″ FBI fingerprint card, also known as FBI FD-258 card, is normally used. If you do not have the required cards, we will provide them to you at no charge.
Ink Pads
At Zippy’s Live Scan, we use high quality ink pads for our ink card fingerprints. The quality ink we use makes all the difference with fingers that may be dry or oily and have trouble picking up ink and rolling an acceptable print. It is easy to clean and everyone will get an ink remover wipe to clean up
with upon completion of being printed.
Fingerprint Cards
The most common fingerprint cards used are pictured above. This is a standard FBI FD258 fingerprint card. We always have a large supply of this type and if you do not already have your own, we can supply you with what is needed. If you are not sure what kind of fingerprint card you need feel free to call Zippy’s Live Scan and we can point you in the right direction.
Zippy’s Live Scan clients also have the peace of mind knowing that fingerprint cards are prepared by Department of Justice and FBI certified fingerprint technicians. All FBI cards will be signed by your technician along with their DOJ/FBI FP certification number.
