Abstract Photovoltaic technology offers a sustainable solution to the problem of soaring global energy demands. Recently, metal halide perovskite solar cells (PSCs) have attracted worldwide interest because of their high power conversion efficiency of 25.5% and great potential in becoming a disruptive technology in the photovoltaic industry. The transition from research to commercialization requires advancements of scalable deposition methods for both perovskite and charge transporting thin films. Herein, we share our view regarding the current challenges to fabrication of PSCs by printing techniques. We focus particularly on ink technologies, and summarize the strategies for printing uniform, pinhole-free perovskite films with good crystallinity. Moreover, the stability of perovskite solar modules is discussed and analyzed. We believe this review will be advantageous in the area of printable electronic devices.
