Cornell 3-D prints a speaker

This is interesting ...

Cornell researchers have 3-D printed a working loudspeaker, seamlessly integrating the plastic, conductive and magnetic parts, and ready for use almost as soon as it comes out of the printer

I've seen enough 3D printer videos, but I'd like to see how they print the conductive and magnetic parts.
Now THERE'S a neat trick.
