French term or phrase: totalité des doigts, les enroulés, les paumes.....

Hi everyone,
I need your help with this, it's from a translation about appliances that create official documents (ID cards, passports etc...) with the use of biometric data (digital fingerprints, photographs, iris etc....) I can't figure out what they mean by "enroulés" here in this context and would greatly appreciate any suggestions.
Many thanks,
Helen

sorry, not flat, but "plain impression" for when you just place the finger flat..
