How does the ID-PI39 standard kit differ from the ID-PI10 ink pad pack?

The ID-PI39 is a complete fingerprint station that includes a platform, a pre-installed PI-30 ink pad, and an 8x8 cardholder, giving you everything required to take full 10-print cards at a desk or counter in one ready-to-use unit. The ID-PI10 is a 6-pack of compact 1.5-inch round pads suited for portable use, single-finger capture, or situations where a full station is impractical. If you fingerprint subjects regularly at a fixed workstation, the ID-PI39 is the more efficient choice; if you need pads for field work or travel kits, the ID-PI10 is the better option.

Do I need special fingerprint cards or paper to use these products?

No special paper is required. Both the ID-PI10 and the ID-PI39 work with standard FBI-format fingerprint cards, FD-258 applicant cards, and ordinary plain paper. You do not need chemically treated paper or any proprietary consumables, which keeps your ongoing supply costs low and ensures the pads are immediately usable with cards already on hand.

What is the difference between ink-based and inkless fingerprinting systems?

Ink-based systems, like the Identicator Perfect Print, use a physical ink pad to transfer ink to the finger and then onto a card, producing permanent black impressions on standard paper without special processing. Inkless systems use a chemical transfer mechanism that requires specially treated paper or a developer sheet to reveal the print. Ink-based systems are generally simpler in setup and lower in consumable cost, while inkless systems leave virtually no residue on the fingers and produce a slightly cleaner tactile experience.

How do I clean my fingers after using the Perfect Print pads?

Cleanup requires no supplies. After taking prints, rub your fingertips together and the slight ink residue lifts off on its own within seconds. For faster cleanup, wipe your fingers with any dry cloth or paper towel. No solvents, pre-moistened wipes, or ink-removing cleansers are needed.

Can these pads produce prints acceptable to the FBI or ATF?

Yes. Identicator Perfect Print pads are used by law enforcement agencies, federal contractors, and applicant processing services nationwide to produce prints submitted to the FBI and ATF. The ceramic micropore surface prevents over-inking, and the fast-dry formula prevents smearing, both of which are the leading causes of card rejection. For FBI classification, background checks, or ATF NFA paperwork, pair these pads with standard FD-258 cards for consistent, submission-ready results.

Overview of the Identicator Perfect Print Pad & Kit | ID-PI10

When a fingerprint card gets rejected because of smearing or over-inking, the subject has to come back and the process starts over. The Identicator Perfect Print system is built to eliminate that problem. A hard ceramic surface engineered with precision micropores regulates ink flow automatically, so each finger receives exactly the right amount of ink and no more.

Two configurations are available at WCUniforms:

ID-PI10 (SKU 1007737): A pack of 6 round pads, each 1.5 inches in diameter, for portable and flexible use
ID-PI39 (SKU 1007745): A complete standard fingerprint station measuring 6" x 17" with a mounted PI-30 ink pad, 8x8 cardholder, and rubber feet

Once ink is on the card it dries almost instantly, making smearing virtually impossible. Cleanup requires no solvents; rub your fingers together or wipe with a cloth and you are done. Both products work on any plain paper or standard fingerprint card. Made in the USA and restricted to domestic sale only.

Key Features

Ceramic Micropore Inking Surface: The hard ceramic pad contains precision micropores that continuously wick ink to the surface while controlling the volume delivered to each finger, preventing the over-inking that causes blurry, rejected prints.
Instant-Dry Ink Formula: Ink transfers to the fingerprint card and dries almost immediately, making smears virtually impossible even during rapid multi-card sessions.
Universal Paper Compatibility: Both the ID-PI10 and ID-PI39 work on FBI-format fingerprint cards, FD-258 applicant cards, and ordinary plain paper; no specially treated or proprietary paper is needed.
No-Solvent Cleanup: After printing, rub your fingers together or wipe with a dry cloth. No ink removers, prep wipes, or chemical cleansers are required.
Self-Replenishing Pad: Micropores prevent dry or worn spots from forming over time, maintaining consistent print quality across the full life of the pad.
ID-PI10 Details: Pack of 6 round pads, 1.5 inches in diameter each; compact form factor for field kits, travel cases, or desk drawers.
ID-PI39 Station Details: Pre-mounted PI-30 ink pad and LE-38 8x8 cardholder on a 6" x 17" platform; rubber feet on the underside grip the desk surface and prevent shifting during rolling; cardholder mounts on the left by default; compact enough to fit in a standard briefcase.
Export Controlled: These products are controlled for export from the United States. Any attempt to export them constitutes a violation of U.S. export laws and regulations.
Domestic Sale Only: Products are for domestic sale and domestic use only.
Country of Origin: Made in the USA.

ID-PI39 specific: The PI-30 ink pad in the station is replaceable. When the pad reaches the end of its service life, you can purchase a replacement PI-30 separately without replacing the entire station. The cardholder is pre-mounted on the left; it can be repositioned if your workflow requires a different layout.

Not compatible with:

Export outside the United States (export-controlled items)
Latent print lifting or crime scene evidence collection

Intended Users

Law enforcement officers and booking personnel use the ID-PI39 station at police departments, jails, county detention facilities, and federal booking locations. The pre-mounted cardholder and non-slip rubber platform simplify high-volume ten-print sessions.

Human resources departments, background screening firms, and government contractors rely on Perfect Print pads when fingerprinting applicants for positions requiring security clearances, healthcare licenses, school employment, or immigration processing. The instant-dry ink prevents the smeared cards that trigger costly resubmissions.

Private security companies and licensed investigators keep the ID-PI10 6-pack in field kits for credentialing, access control enrollment, and portable applicant fingerprinting at client sites.

Gun owners, FFL dealers, and NFA applicants use these pads to produce the clean rolled prints required on ATF fingerprint cards for Form 4 transfers, suppressor registrations, and SBR applications.

Children's safety programs and community ID events use the non-toxic, easy-cleanup formula to take prints from children and families in a comfortable, mess-free environment.
