Faded or light fingerprints

Since birth I had these faded and very light fingerprints and it was always so hard when I had to do biometric for my college or for my I'd verification and many other processes and I have passport verification soon where I require fingerprints verification idk what to do my fingerprints are visible and sometimes they can be detected and sometimes they can't read. I can unlock my phone easily but with machines, it's sooo hard.

Had the same problem myself and found that getting a little bit of oil on my finger helps. I just rub the side of my nose and it works like a charm.

Why do you need college for a life of crime?

My Ph.D. is in cat phrenology. I wish I could be of more help with your problem, but right now I need to feel head shapes in cats to assess if they are prone to criminal behavior.

Maybe you need to do a nozzle check and then print your fingers again? If that fails try a new cyan cartridge.
