The platform was used to screen printing-layer number, nozzle configuration, and electric-field strength by integrating band-width fidelity, continuity, overspray, and apparent conductivity with neural-cell readouts. A 4-layer double-nozzle condition produced a core printed-band width of 204.8 \u00b5m, close to the designed 200 \u00b5m width, with 94.5% continuity and 0.50% overspray, while providing an apparent conductivity of 0.432 \u00b1 0.038 S cm\n                    <jats:sup>\u22121<\/jats:sup>\n                    , approximately 78.8% of the 10-layer condition. The same workflow localized nerve growth factor or neuregulin-1 at the basal cell-material interface. Fluorescence-assisted imaging verified post-reduction pattern retention, while ELISA quantified immunoreactive recovery and cumulative release. Across the tested models, the printed interface and stimulation conditions were associated with changes in neural cell behavior.
