The printed material may be an organic polymer or inorganic composition including metallics and ceramics. Beads of different material composition may be printed in succession to vary mechanical, electrical and/or thermal properties. A portion of the protective frame may be retained on an edge of the glass core when panels are singulated into package substrate units.
