It differs in that the claims surrounding this story state that a person can do it at home with home chemicals and materials with a modified inkjet.
My guess is the cells probably are not very efficient or very durable.
But on the flip side they are very cheap even with the lack of efficiency, somewhat along the lines of the gentleman who invented the solar "PAINT" for homes that hasn't materialized.
We will have to wait to see if anyone can find her and convince her to post what materials she was using, another site I belong to plans on attempting to replicate it into a DIY.
