Live Scan Fingerprinting Near Camden, OH
Live Scan is the technology behind modern fingerprinting. Instead of rolling your fingers in ink and pressing them onto paper cards, a digital scanner captures your fingerprint ridges electronically, checks quality in real time, and transmits the images directly to Ohio BCI and/or the FBI within seconds. At our Camden-area office, we use certified Live Scan equipment for all electronic submissions. The result is a lower rejection rate, faster processing, and no messy ink.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is Live Scan more accurate than ink fingerprinting?
Generally yes. Live Scan captures higher resolution images and allows immediate quality checks. Ink cards are more prone to smearing, pressure inconsistencies, and rejection. Rejection rates for Live Scan are significantly lower.
My prints are hard to capture — I have faint ridges. Can Live Scan handle that?
Live Scan handles faint ridges better than ink in most cases because we can adjust scan pressure and retry individual fingers. We also use moisturizer for very dry fingers. Elderly individuals and people who work with their hands often have faint ridges — we have experience with this.
