A 3D printer to additively manufacture a 3D object includes a coater, a dispenser, and an energy source. The coater is to coat a first material relative to a print bed to form a selectable number of first layers. The dispenser is to dispense a first fluid agent onto first selected locations of the first layers of the first material. The energy source is to cause fusing at the first selected locations. The dispenser is to also dispense a second fluid agent including a second material to form a selectable number of second layers of the second material at second selected locations on top of the selectable number of first layers. Each second selected location comprises at least some of the fused first selected locations.
