Will it be possible to 3D print human organs in the future?

According to this article published in the website FromTheGrapevine, it might actually become possible to 3D print human organs in the future. Experiments revolve around injecting human genes into tobacco plants, which seem to result in compatible human tissue of various kinds. The idea seems to revolve around studies to use these tissues to 3D print human organs next, which would make transplant availability greatly improve.
