There may have been a nonzero chance of it starting a fire, since the article describes some printers as “tearing themselves apart”, which could conceivably have included wiring damage or hot things landing outside the printer on flammable material.
Also, since it seems to have been printing copies of previous prints, um, well . . . some people do print sex toys. I can see how explaining that one to your eight-year-old or your mother-in-law, if they find it first, could be considered a nightmare.
We’ll, considering things can heat up quite a bit with printers, I wouldn’t want mine turning on randomly. I’d rather heat my house using central heating, thank you.
Really? “nightmare fuel”?
Some people have a really low bar for considering something a nightmare.
