Cartographers can make a projection all the way around the Earth by approximating a Cylindrical projection which is like wrapping a piece of paper around the globe and casting shadows onto it.
Explanation:
In order to wrap the entire globe, the shape of the wrapping cover would mandatorily be needed to be vertically circular.
Such a shape would only be possible through a cylindrical projection. The need to use a rolling print would dismiss the logic of the Earth being spherical.
A mushroom-like projection would at most cover only one horizontal hemisphere at a time.
Hence, that would not be suitable again. The fingerprint projection can only be looked at as an impossible option.
