The one question I would like to know is: where can I get my hands on this kind of ink and what kind of printer does it require? Unfortunately, journalists don'

  Just google "conductive ink". I don't know of any printers that use conductive ink, but there is a variety of available pens with conductive ink that you can use to draw the circuits.

  If you have access to a chem lab this video will show you how to make your own: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dfNByi-rrO4 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dfNByi-rrO4 If you'd rather not make your own, you can purchase a pen full of that ink on their kickstarter page for $20 here (11 days left): http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/electroninks/circuit-scribe-draw-circuits-instantly http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/electroninks/circuit-scr...

  Try the Mitsubishi NBSIJ–MU01 conductive ink for inkjet printers. Available here: http://www.k-mpm.com/agnano/agnano_ink.html http://www.k-mpm.com/agnano/agnano_ink.html MSR published a paper where they tried using this ink and wrote about their results: http://research.microsoft.com/pubs/201273/ubi1415-instant%20inkjet.pdf http://research.microsoft.com/pubs/201273/ubi1415-instant%20...

  To answer the “what kind of printer does it require?” part of the question; Here's the Circuit Scribe pen being used in a pen plotter, in this case to draw an arduino-compatible circuit: http://www.instructables.com/id/Paperduino-20-with-Circuit-Scribe/ http://www.instructables.com/id/Paperduino-20-with-Circuit-S...
