While the concept is interesting, it seems like there is a lot of waste in the printing process, namely the entire structure that's printed along with the reactive chemicals.

I'd be more concerned about crackheads printing crack (or similar) if it became available in homes, personally.

But still, it's interesting that they're doing it.
