What's unique about Apple's application is that it colors the product while it's being printed via two nozzles—one for extruding the material being printed and another for applying a coloring agent. The patent includes another method, where the object would be colored after printing.
According to 3DPrint.com, Apple's proposed design, with the two nozzles, is significant, as many 3-D printers only print one-color items. There are a few others that can produce multicolored products, such as the Cube Pro and Dreammaker Overlord, but coloring the item as it prints would be a new addition to the industry's technology.
