Yes, you can have it done without an appointment, just like you can go in and have iris scanning done without an appointment if you had your NEXUS interview done at one of the centers without the iris camera. When I got NEXUS ~2.5 years ago, they were already doing the full 10 fingerprint scanning for everyone.

Why in the world would that be? There is a major CBP operation at YYZ and every NEXUS enrollment center has operated as a GE enrollment center since they made the programs fully integrated on the US side.

Not really. People in this forum know as much, if not more, about GE and even NEXUS than those in the AC forum.
