 The link showing four states was from 2001.  I saw that same link when looking for it myself.
Here's a forum discussion from 2010 where a bunch of people chime in about whether their individual states require fingerprints:

You'll see a mixture of "yes" and "no" for various states, including those not on the original list of four you saw.
I have to imagine that even more are requiring it in 2019, given that the number seems to have vastly increased from 2001 to 2010.  It's possible that terrorist concerns after 2001 had something to do with this.
