    摘要: A 3D printer is disclosed herein. The 3D printer comprises an energy source comprising solid-state emitters to selectively emit energy to a build material layer in a narrow-band of wavelengths; an agent delivery device to selectively deposit a fusing agent, a detailing agent and a reflective agent on the build material layer in respective independent patterns; and a controller. The reflective agent is to reflect substantially all of the energy at the wavelengths within the narrow-band of wavelengths. The controller is to control the agent delivery device to selectively deposit the fusing agent to a build material layer in a first pattern corresponding to a 3D object to be generated. The controller is further to control the agent delivery device to selectively deposit the detailing agent and the reflective gent to the build material layer in a second pattern and third pattern respectively. The controller is also to control the energy source to apply energy to the first pattern and second pattern in the narrow-band of wavelengths.
