Printing conductive elements

A method comprising:

• identifying, by a processor and from object model data for a physical object, a first region of an object layer comprising an indication of a conductive element;
• printing, using an additive manufacturing apparatus, the object layer comprising the first region comprising the conductive element, and a second region comprising an insulating composition;
• applying, using the additive manufacturing apparatus, a first amount of at least one fusing agent to the object layer within the first region;
• applying, using the additive manufacturing apparatus, a second amount of the at least one fusing agent to the object layer within the second region, wherein the first amount of the at least one fusing agent is selected to be less than the second amount of the at least one fusing agent based on identifying the first region as comprising the indication of the conductive element;
• and
• fusing, using the additive manufacturing apparatus, at least one layer of build material from which the object layer is formed by controlling irradiation of the at least one fusing agent by the additive manufacturing apparatus in the first region and the second region.
