Multi-material fluidic printing system and method of printing

A multi-material fluidic printing system comprising:

• a pressure source;
• at least one regulator having at least one first end and at least one second end, wherein the at least one first end is fluidically coupled to the pressure source;
• at least one flow selector having at least one third end and a plurality of fourth ends, wherein the at least one third end is fluidically coupled to the at least one second end;
• a plurality of cartridges that are capable of holding a plurality of fluid materials, wherein each cartridge has a fifth end and a sixth end, the fifth end being fluidically coupled to a corresponding fourth end amongst the plurality of fourth ends;
• and
• at least one processor coupled to the pressure source, the at least one regulator, and the at least one flow selector, wherein the at least one processor is configured to:
• control the pressure source to generate a first pressure;
• control the at least one regulator to regulate the first pressure received at the at least one first end to obtain a second pressure at the at least one second end, wherein the second pressure is less than the first pressure;
• and
• control the at least one flow selector to selectively distribute the second pressure received at the at least one third end to obtain at least one third pressure on at least one fourth end amongst the plurality of fourth ends, wherein when at least one fifth end fluidically coupled to the at least one fourth end is subjected to the at least one third pressure, at least one fluid material held in at least one cartridge corresponding to the at least one fourth end is dispensed from at least one sixth end of the at least one cartridge onto a fluidic device.
