There are multiple types of 3D printing, but Im going to explain the most popular: Fused Deposition Modeling or the 3D printing you might see in a movie

A meltable plastic is heated to at or above its melting temperature. The liquid plastic is then pushed through a nozzle in a pattern/design created by the user. As the design is created, the plastic is cooled and hardened in the same of the design.
