How do I make fingerprints or other prints? Use an ink pad with black ink and a sheet of blank white paper (or use the optional Inkless Print Kit found under "Print Sending Option"). Select the area of the print that is the most interesting (for instance, where there may be a swirling in the center). Gently touch the ink pad a couple of times and then tap on the white paper (rolling is not advised). Practice until you have a high-quality ink print (the better the quality of the original, the better the final product will be). Scan the print at 600 ppi and save in .jpg or .bmp file format. Email the jpg along with your order number to service@mainelyurns.com. Or, mail a hardcopy (please do not send originals documents such as birth certificates, etc.) to Mainely Urns, Inc., 19-B Portland Road, Gray, ME 04039.
