There’s a bunch of nuance here.

But just for clarification, selling a recreation isn’t required for copyright infringement. The copying itself can be problematic so you can’t defend yourself by saying you haven’t yet sold any of the 10,000 copies you just printed. There are some exceptions that allow you to make copies for specific purposes, skip protection on a portable CD player for example, but that doesn’t apply to the 10k copies situation.
