Live Scan System

Capture fingerprints for electronic submission or card printing.

Applicant Live Scan & Fingerprint Card System

Our Applicant Live Scan System is designed for businesses and service providers who capture fingerprints for employment, licensing, immigration, and other applicant-based background checks. Certified by the FBI, the California Department of Justice (DOJ), and the Florida Department of Law Enforcement (FDLE), the system ensures fast, accurate, and high-quality fingerprint capture—whether you’re submitting electronically or printing fingerprint cards.

We provide dedicated Live Scan solutions tailored to your workflow:

  • California Live Scan System – optimized for electronic submissions to the California DOJ.

  • Florida Live Scan System – built for direct submission to FDLE for Level 2 background checks.

  • Print-to-Card System – ideal for nationwide and federal programs requiring fingerprint cards instead of electronic submissions.

The Print-to-Card system digitally captures fingerprints with exceptional quality and prints them directly onto official fingerprint card formats. This solution is perfect for agencies and industries that require mailed fingerprint cards, including federal and state licensing, immigration processing, firearms applications, private security, financial services, and other regulated sectors.

We currently support printing on the following card types:

  • FD-258 – Applicant

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

  • FD-1164 – Identity History Summary (FBI)

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

  • FD-249 – Criminal

  • FD-353 – Personal Identification

  • Standard Criminal Fingerprint Card

This product has been certified by the FBI as meeting the image quality standards defined in Appendix F of the Next Generation Identification (NGI) System.
