What Is Ink Fingerprinting?

Ink fingerprinting is the traditional method of capturing fingerprints using ink rolled across a card. Many government agencies, licensing boards, professional organizations, and out-of-state employers still require ink-rolled fingerprints on physical cards — as opposed to digital or live-scan capture.

At Uptown Notary & Signing Co., LLC, we provide professional ink fingerprinting performed with care and precision. Each set is rolled cleanly and legibly to ensure your submission meets the standards required by the requesting agency.

Whether you're applying for a professional license, renewing a background check, fulfilling a court or agency requirement, or submitting to an out-of-state organization, we can help you get your prints done right — the first time.

Questions & Answers

Frequently Asked Questions

Ink fingerprinting uses ink rolled onto a physical card — a traditional method still required by many agencies, licensing boards, and out-of-state organizations. Live-scan is a digital capture method used by many Texas agencies but not universally accepted. If your requesting agency specifically requires ink-rolled fingerprint cards, ink fingerprinting is what you need. When in doubt, confirm with the requesting organization.
If your agency has provided fingerprint cards — especially cards with pre-printed case numbers, ORI numbers, or demographic fields — bring those. If you don't have cards, standard FD-258 cards may be available at our office while supplies last. Contact us in advance to confirm availability for your specific situation.
Most ink fingerprinting appointments are completed in 15–20 minutes. This includes identity verification, completing any required demographic fields on the card, and performing the ink roll for all ten fingers.
We take care to produce clean, legible prints. However, if an agency rejects your prints for any reason (quality, incorrect card, incomplete demographic information, etc.), we are happy to reschedule a new appointment. Additional sets will be charged at the standard $50 per set rate. We recommend reviewing your agency's instructions carefully before your appointment to minimize the chance of rejection.
No. Uptown Notary & Signing Co., LLC performs the fingerprinting only. Once your prints are complete, the card is returned to you for submission to the requesting organization. You are responsible for following the agency's specific submission instructions, deadlines, and mailing or delivery requirements.
No. Ink fingerprinting is simply the capture and documentation of your fingerprints on a card. The background check itself is conducted by the requesting agency after they receive and process your fingerprint card. We do not run background checks and do not have access to the results of any check performed using your prints.
Appointments are preferred to ensure availability and minimize your wait time. Same-day and walk-in appointments may be available depending on the schedule. Contact us at 214.214.2816 or info@uptownnotarysigning.com to check current availability before coming in.
