Abstract: The ink-on paper technique or off-line approach indicates obtained the ink impression from the skin surface of the fingertip on paper, that is still used in daily-life routines like applications of forensic, issuance of passports, personal identification, security card and as well as request permission of residence in countries that have highest security and other issues that require immediately fingerprints on paper. In this study, we built a new Database for Fingerprint Recognition Systems (DFRS) by different participants from the academic staff, students of University of Anbar and others. Each participant rolled ten times of thumbprint, five left and right of thumbs on a form. After scanning all forms by the high-quality scanner, we cropped all the images of fingerprints and applied a number of preprocessing stages. Therefore, the database includes 1700 images for training and testing of fingerprint recognition systems. The DFRS-dataset will be freely available for the purpose of researchers.
