Print-outs are a physical good. Tokens aren't.

They are both fungible. You can replace one with the other.
How does that relate to my comment. I didn't say anything about the fungibility of either. Physical goods have wildly different logistical constraints compared to anything digital. This, and only this, I would argue, makes their production at home attractive to consumers. Tokens just don't have these properties.
