Because paper is basically made from cloth fibers (e.g., cotton and rayon), the below answer about cloth also applies. | ||

Unless the friction ridge detail was deposited with (or impressed in) some unusual contaminate like paint, lipstick, melted nylon or my wife's spaghetti sauce, it would probably be destroyed. The cloth surface also would need to be relatively smooth (tightly woven) material to record a legible impression. If you imagine a fingerprint as being somewhat similar to rubber stamp, you can understand that a burlap bag would be a much worse surface for receiving a legible impression than would be a high-thread-count bed sheet. If the impressions survived the washing machine, a hot dryer could help fix (make relatively permanent) the impressions. If deposited in melted candle wax or the dark grease from my VW's engine, the impressions might survive the washing machine but could be destroyed in a hot dryer. | ||
