A method and apparatus for forming a partition layer on a substrate by imaging a thermal or laser transfer medium onto the substrate using a imagewise controlled radiation source. A matrix of partition cells are created on the substrate that can, in a further step, be selectively filled with fluid or ink using an inkjet printing technique. The partition layer, the substrate, and fluids to be deposited are selected so that the fluids wet the substrate but not the partitions, preventing bending between adjacent cells.
