Copenhagen passport control - US citizen - Crop unrecognizable person demonstrating British passport

I was lining up for passport control at CPH and saw some people providing their fingerprint. I wasn't asked to provide it. Is this is a one time thing or are fingerprints not required from US citizens? Thanks.
