I guess some kind of large rig, that could be lifted on to site and literally print the whole house there and then.

Well, they do have large rigs though. The problem is that the techniques are not able to "print" pipes, steel structural supports such as rebar or roofing/floor beams, windows, etc. They can mostly just put down layers of concrete.
