Abstract
In an example, a method includes forming a layer of build material, processing a first portion of the build material by distributing a print agent using a first distribution pattern, the first distribution pattern having a first print agent dispersion characteristic and processing a second portion of the build material by distributing a print agent using a second distribution pattern, the second distribution pattern having a second print agent dispersion characteristic. The method may further include heating the build material by exposing the layer of build material to radiation so as to cause fusing of the first and second portion.
