Claim 0:
1. A computer-implemented method for producing printer control data configured to operate a printer unit to produce a printed circuit board, the printing unit being responsive to the printer control data for printing at least one of or both of a conductive material or nonconductive material at a given time, the method comprising:
accepting circuit schematic information of a circuit to be embodied in the printed circuit board; and
generating said printer control data based on said circuit schematic information, said printer control data defining:
first and second printed intersecting conductive traces wherein the second printed intersecting conductive trace intersects the first printed intersecting conductive trace at an intersection location as viewed from a direction perpendicular to the printed circuit board, the first and second printed intersecting conductive traces being defined by the circuit schematic information as not electrically connected by the printed circuit board absent circuit components to be mounted; and
a printed insulator configured to be printed interposed between said first and second printed intersecting traces at the intersection location to insulate said first printed intersecting conductive trace from said second printed intersecting conductive trace.
