Wow.  Never thought of that.  What's to stop printing meth or opiates or just about anything?   This could disrupt the entire society.  Not that I would be against it.  Freedom from drug companies, freedom from physicians, freedom from drug lords.  Millions of unintended suicides.

Why would we need a 3D printer to make dope?  The molecules wouldn’t need to be in any particular configuration, only they must all be there.  I understand some labs have managed to do genetic modification on yeast to cause them to synthesize opiates.  No 3D printer needed.
