An electrode array with embedded thin-film transistors is fabricated with a self-aligned imprint lithography process. In an embodiment the electrode array is built over a flexible, conductive, substrate, in an alternative embodiment the electrode array is built on a curved substrate. In an embodiment, the electrode array is incorporated into a printer, and is coated with a passivation layer having openings for each electrode of the array. The printer develops an image by selectively charging electrodes of the array, the openings of each electrode being exposed to an electrophoretic ink. Charged particles of the electrophoretic ink migrate to charged electrodes, thereby forming an image that is transferred to a printing substrate such as paper.
