- Conductive tracks: silver nanoparticle ink - Resistors: carbon-based ink - Inductors: printed spirals - Capacitors: interdigitated fingers or stacked layers

I'm aware of printers like the Dimatix DMP-2850 and Optomec Aerosol Jet, but I'm more interested in hacking a standard inkjet printer for this.

Has anyone here experimented with something similar? I'd love to hear about setup, materials, challenges, or any resources you’d recommend.

I count on external power. Solid state components are definitely a challenge.
