Previously, one could go to any law enforcement agency and secure prints for submitting that way. Now, however, there are new rules for Wisconsin licensees (including PI and Security personnel), as outlined below:
EFFECTIVE JANUARY 1, 2007
1). Effective January 1, 2007, each owner, member of the LLC, corporate officers or partners of the agency must submit digital fingerprints. With the digital process, results should be back within hours of the submission if no criminal record is found. The need and expense of temporary permits should be eliminated. Inked, hard copy fingerprint cards will not be accepted.
2). Digital fingerprints are required even if you currently hold a private detective license or a private security permit unless you were originally licensed within the past six months. If you meet this requirement, please indicate this on your application.
3). The Department of Regulation and Licensing has contracted with Promissor as the vendor to provide the digital fingerprint process. Applicants should visit the Promissor website and select "Fingerprinting Services" or contact the Promissor Reservation Center at 800-274-7173 to schedule an appointment. Please allow up to 5 days for an appointment to have your fingerprints taken. The cost for the digital fingerprints will be $61 and is expected at the time of the reservation in the form of a major credit/debit card, electronic check or prepaid voucher.
Electronic fingerprinting sites are currently located at:
5008 - Iron River 5050 - Elm Grove/Milwaukee
Lumberman Inn Enterprise Center 2nd Floor
7700 US Hwy 2 12700 W Blue Mound Rd
Iron River WI 58880 Elm Grove WI 53122
5052 - Green Bay 5009 - LaCrosse
2350 University Ave #100 811 Monitor St Suite 206
Green Bay WI 54302 LaCrosse WI 54601
5051 - Madison 5054 - Wausau
582 Grand Canyon Dr 2620 Stewart Ave Suite 118
Madison WI 53719 Wausau WI 54401
Two forms of signature identification are required: one must be a government issued identification with a photograph. Qualifying government issued identification includes a state driver's license, state identification, military photo ID, passport, valid school ID for minors only. Your reservation must be made in your legal name and your identification must match the reservation. If you do not present the appropriate identification, your fingerprints will not be taken and you will be held responsible for the fee. The staff at the Promissor facilities is not permitted to make any exceptions. Plan to arrive at the test center fifteen minutes before the scheduled start time of the appointment for check- in.
3). Your completed application, fee, a recent photograph of your head and shoulders and all supporting documents must be submitted to the Department within 14 days after submission of your fingerprints. If there is no criminal background history and all supporting documents have been submitted, a private detective agency license will be issued. If the search reveals a criminal background, the applicant will be requested to submit further information or a Notice of Denial will be sent as appropriate.

Basically, to get a license, you get to drive a good portion of the state to a "regional" area.
