Too easy. most of what is published has the quality of a man saying he killed some servers because he wanted to. You have to ask yourself the real question: "Why?"Once there, move on to the heart of the matter. yes, depending on what the end result required is, your investment will change, as it only makes sense to spend 2k-25k to pick up 200k, etc,etc. So, now that we are there, the easiest and most cost effective method is still plain old scotch brand cellophane tape. It's clear, easily available(read as difficult to trace due to market saturation), and it can get the real good latents off of everything from fabric to glass. Not very reliable for rough steel , thanks to the surface grain of the metal leaving so many ridges and perforations that it becomes a nest of what most scanners see as "please clean platen, too many samples"...
Keep it simple , and it usually goes that way.
