Live Scan System

Applicant Live Scan and Fingerprint Card System

Our Live Scan Fingerprint System is built for businesses and service providers that offer fingerprinting for employment, licensing, immigration, and other applicant-based background checks. Certified by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), the California Department of Justice (DOJ), and the Florida Department of Law Enforcement (FDLE), the system delivers reliable, high-quality fingerprint capture for both electronic submissions and fingerprint card printing.

We offer separate Live Scan systems tailored for specific use cases: one for electronic submission to the California DOJ, one for submission to the Florida Department of Law Enforcement (FDLE), and another for digital fingerprint capture with print-to-card functionality.

The print-to-card system allows you to digitally capture high-quality fingerprints and print them directly onto official fingerprint cards, such as the FD-258, FD-1164, and SF-87. This is ideal for submissions to agencies that require mailed fingerprint cards, including federal, state, or licensing authorities. It’s especially valuable for background checks related to employment, licensing, immigration, and regulated industries like firearms and private security.

We currently support printing on the following fingerprint card formats:

• FD-258 – Applicant

• FD-258 (ATF) – Firearms / NFA Applications

• FD-1164 – Identity History Summary

• SF-87 – U.S. Office of Personnel Management

• FD-249 – Criminal

• FD-353 – Personal Identification

• Standard Criminal Fingerprint Card

• Standard Child Fingerprint Card
