A person who prints on a press is called a printer or a press operator. They are responsible for setting up and operating printing machines to reproduce text and images on various materials like paper, cardboard, or fabric.
Basically, a fingerprint left on a surface is caused because: Oils form on sweat glands in our fingers, collecting on ridges of a fingerprint.
After touching something, the oils and other materials previously on the ridges are left behind on the surface you just touched. I hope that helps.
No, finger prints do not wear off with age. Fingerprints are formed by ridges on the skin and are unique to each individual. They do not change or degrade over time, unless there is an injury or damage to the skin.

Yes, fingerprints are formed by the unique combination of ridge patterns and minutiae. Ridge characteristics refer to the ridges and furrows that form the overall pattern of a fingerprint, such as loops, whorls, and arches. Minutiae are the specific unique features within the ridge patterns, such as ridge endings, bifurcations, and dot-like formations. The combination of these ridge characteristics and minutiae make each fingerprint unique and identifiable.
Primates such as chimpanzees and apes have fingerprints.
A lesser-known fact is that the koala of Australia has unique and distinct fingerprints as well, and these fingerprints are considered very similar to those of a human.
No, in fact each finger and each toes fingerprints are different from one another.
There are many ways to get hand prints off of glass doors. Windex and a paper towel are a good way. Also, one can also use regular soap and water, or a microfiber cloth like the kinds that come with eyeglasses.
There are many ways to hide fingerprints for both bad and good reasons (not many good reasons though). If you want to hide fingerprints you can either wear thick gloves or gloves such as baseball gloves, not mitts. Also there are ways to prevent from showing fingerprints, and that is pooring sulfuric acid on your fingers but involves pain (obviously woldn't recommend at all). Also another way is to use bleach as a cover up (bleach's ingrediants "eliminate" DNA, but is also used for a bad purpose)
Fingerprints form naturally during the development of the human fetus, starting about 13 weeks after conception. The inner surfaces of the fingers and the palms of the hands, which are covered with hairless (glabrous) skin, develop tiny 'pods', which are the precursors of the pores of sweat glands. These pods, or ridge units, expand and coalesce with neighbouring pods, producing roughly linear ridges, with the sweat pores distributed along their crests, raised above the surface of the surrounding skin. These form the familiar parallel and swirling ridges and intervening furrows, the exact pattern of which is determined by complex, irregular stresses in the skin.
An excerpt from Answers.com on fingerprint origin
How much a fingerprint scanner will cost depends upon where you buy it and the brand. You can expect to pay anything between $40 and $400 for a new fingerprint scanner.
No. But there are apps that will try to scam you into thinking there is. There isn't.

well maybe maybe not. it might becasue it might wash off but it might not because the oil from ou hands might stick to te object
