You'd be surprised how low the bar is for "highly technical" among the general populace, particularly those inclined to steal used technology from targets of opportunity. How many people do you know who even own a laser printer, a subscription to photoshop and the skill to use it, and know what an "acetate sheet" is? The vast majority of people, if they have a printer at all, use cheap inkjets, they don't know how to use photoshop and don't care to learn, and they've never heard of acetate sheets. Could an enterprising criminal master this technique? Sure, but I'm not convinced it's reliable or lucrative enough to make the time/risk investment worth it for someone with that skill-set.
