A well oriented Bi2212 superconductor thick films were fabricated by screen printing with a Cu-free Bi-Sr-Ca-O mixture powder on a copper plate and heat-treating at 820-88$0^{\circ}C$ for several minute in air. During the heat-treatment, the printing layer partially melted by reaction between the Cu-free precursor and CuO of the oxidizing copper plate. In the partial melting state, it is believed that the solid phase is Bi-free phase and Cu-rich phase and the composition of the liquid is around Bi : Sr : Ca : Cu = 2 : 2 : 0 : 1. Following the partial melting, the Bi2212 superconducting phase is formed at Bi-free phase/liquid interface by nucleation and grows. With decreasing the Bi composition in the precursor powder, the critical temperature(T$_{c}$) of the fabricated Bi2212 thick film increased to about 79 K.K.

Wekk oriented $Bi_{2} Sr_{2} CaCu_{2} O_{8}$ suppercondcting thick films were fabricared on copper tape by LiReac-PreCu (liquid reaction between a Cu-free precousor and Cu tape) method. Cu-free precursor power which is composed of $Bi_{2}Sr_{2}Ca_{5}$ was printed on a copper tape by screen printing and was heat-treated. The speciment were partially in a molten state at the heat treatment temperature (85$0^{\circ}C$~87$0^{\circ}C$). The heat heat treatments for the reaction were performed in air or low oxygen pressure in several stages. XRD analyses of the resulting Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8 superconducting tapes show that the $Bi_{2} Sr_{2} CaCu_{2} O_{8}$ phase is dominant and a small amount of $Bi_{2} Sr_{2} Cu_{2} O_{6}$ phase is detected. Both phases are aligned in the c-axis direction.
