What Is Ink Fingerprinting?
Ink fingerprinting is the traditional process of applying ink to a person’s fingertips and carefully rolling each print onto an official fingerprint card. Many government agencies, employers and licensing boards still require this method—especially when fingerprints must be mailed to another state or submitted on a physical card.
EasyWay provides professional ink-and-roll fingerprinting on standard FD-258 cards and other agency-issued fingerprint forms.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is an FD-258 fingerprint card?
The FD-258 is a standard fingerprint card commonly used for federal background checks and by many state agencies, licensing boards, employers, and other organizations. The card records your fingerprints along with identifying information required by the requesting agency.
EasyWay Fingerprinting & Notary provides professional fingerprinting on FD-258 cards at our Mount Vernon, NY location.
Do you provide FD-258 fingerprint cards?
Yes. EasyWay provides standard FD-258 fingerprint cards for applicable fingerprinting appointments.
If your employer, licensing board, government agency, or requesting organization provided its own fingerprint card, bring that card and any instructions with you to your appointment.
Can I bring my own fingerprint card?
Yes. If the requesting agency provided you with a specific fingerprint card, you should bring it with you.
We can fingerprint on many agency-provided cards as long as they are appropriate for traditional ink fingerprinting. We recommend bringing all instructions supplied by the requesting organization.
Can you fingerprint me for an out-of-state license or background check?
Yes. EasyWay assists clients who need fingerprint cards for professional licensing, employment, certifications, background checks, and other requirements outside New York.
Requirements vary by state and agency, so bring any fingerprint cards, forms, reference numbers, and instructions provided by the organization requesting your fingerprints.
What is the difference between ink fingerprinting and electronic fingerprinting?
Ink fingerprinting places your fingerprints onto a physical fingerprint card, such as an FD-258 card, which can then be submitted according to the requesting agency's instructions.
Electronic fingerprinting captures fingerprints digitally for submission through an approved electronic system when available.
The requesting agency should tell you which method it requires. If you're unsure, bring or send us the instructions you received before booking.
What should I bring to my fingerprinting appointment?
Bring a current, valid government-issued photo ID along with any fingerprint cards, forms, agency instructions, reference numbers, or other documentation provided by the organization requesting your fingerprints.
If you were given a specific fingerprint card, bring the original card with you.
How long does an FD-258 ink fingerprinting appointment take?
Most standard ink fingerprinting appointments can be completed relatively quickly. Appointment length may vary depending on the number of fingerprint cards required, the condition of the applicant's fingerprints, and any additional services needed.
If you need multiple fingerprint cards, let us know when scheduling your appointment.
