fp_print_data is a structure which contains data about scanned
fingerprint, data is either NBIS minutiae or raw device data, but not an
image. If you want to match two images, you'll have to extract minutiae
from both of them and compare these together.
libfprint uses NBIS library to extract and compare minutiae, however it
doesn't provide an interface for this unless you use internal functions.
If doing so isn't a problem for you, your program may follow this pattern:
For image 1:
  img1 = fpi_img_new (size_of_image1_data)
  img1.width = width_for_image1
  img1.height = width_for_image1
  fpi_img_detect_minutiae (img1)
Do the same for image 2, and once you got minutiae for both images:
  match_score = fpi_img_compare_print_data (&img1, &img2)
  if (match_score > BOZORTH3_DEFAULT_THRESHOLD) succeed();
  else fail();

All fpi_xxx function are declared in fp_internal.h, fpi_img_xxx
functions are defined in img.c.

Hope this helps.
Regards.
