    You can do your own pic if you have a decent phone and can print on photo paper, it just needs to be the correct size when trimmed and cut (I think it was 2" x 2" iirc)... that's how I did mine. I can help with prints on this side, but can't over there, sorry...

    You may try calling some of the local LEO locations, someone may do it. I had mine done years ago at a county police facility over here (no, not related to being arrested... lol)

    You don't need actual ink fingerprints on the blue FD-258's. Anyone that does live scan can just print it out on the Blue cards. I haven't had actual ink prints done in years.

    I'm looking for this same service but near Glen Burnie.

    I was told by the gun shop I'm buying a SBR at that it needs to be old school ink prints. They were wrong?

    I've submitted over 100 live scan printed cards in just the past 5 years with zero problems. FYI Fingerprinting in Ellicott City can do all types of prints. I have 4 of their live scan printed FD-258 cards in the ATF system right now. And 4 went through with no problems earlier this year.

    Good to know. Thanks!
    Only problem is they are $70 or so. I'll try to find a cheap ink place first then use them as a plan B.

    The last set that I had done by FYI was about 3 months and it ran about $48. Livescan printed cards.
    I used to get cards done at the Fairfax County Police Annex. They had police cadets doing it to get experience. They were about $35 for the first 2 cards and then $5 per card after that. Same thing, livescan printed cards. Probably had about 50 cards done by them. The old MD purple cards and the blue FD-258's.
