When taking fingerprints there must be a fingerprint in the system already. When removing fingerprints from items the item can be placed in a vacuum sealed case where superglue is heated and turned into a vapor where it will attach itself to the item, revealing the prints. The powder clings to the oils and alleles left behind from the fingertips. The fingerprints are then put into the system and the closest matches are found.

Is a fingerprint better than DNA?
Both identify a person, the DNA more conclusively because fingerprints are often smeared or partials. A fingerprint has one advantage over DNA if it can be classified as where and when it was made, which can establish a person's presence in a given circumstance. For example, if a fingerprint is in the blood on a weapon, it could only have been made after the blood was there.
