It's like making a normal printer that's mandated by the government to never print dicks
I mean normal printers will not let you print money. That's what gave these idiots the idea to begin with I'd wager. But there are orders of magnitude in difference in difficulty between making a piece of software capable of autonomously recognizing a few existing designs of dollar bills and one that can tell a working gun part that can take a shape that can vary almost infinitely from other objects that can also take nearly infinite shapes.
They don't recognize bills. They recognize a pattern of tiny yellow rings in the bills, the Eurion constellation, which can barely be seen by the eye. This supposedly will stop copiers and printers from scanning or printing any document that has these.
Bypassing these is trivial.
