Ink Fingerprinting
What is Ink & Roll Fingerprinting?
- Ink & roll is the traditional method of capturing fingerprints for criminal record searches or police certificates.
- In Canada, this method has mostly been replaced by digital or electronic fingerprinting.
- Some foreign countries still require fingerprints to be captured using actual ink for their criminal background checks.
