That is not true at all. DPS prints and run via computer. The computer rejects them.

I have been fingerprinted for CHL purposes at least 6 times, and for Private Security Board much more than that. (DPS runs the PSB, and prints go to the same place as CHL prints) I have NEVER had prints returned.

I was the director of training for a place that does 120+ Chl students month. In 3 years I can recall about 3 times a student had to come back for re-prints.


I imagine the percentage of returned prints is minuscule.

DPS uses a computer to classify prints. It rejects prints that a person would lkely classify. I have seen a local LEO fingerprint actually classify a set of prints that the computer rejected.
