It could be expanded to 20x20xN by using four sets of bridges on each of the top levels.
 
 
 
The top has two layers of bridges.
 
 
 
First layer
 
 
 
############    # wall
 
#----------#    - east/west retracting bridge
 
#----------#    . floor
 
#----------#
 
#----------####
 
#----------..<-- magma source
 
#----------####
 
#----------#
 
#----------#
 
#----------#
 
#----------#
 
############
 
 
 
Second layer
 
 
 
############    # wall
 
#||||||||||#    | north/south retracting bridge
 
#||||||||||#
 
#||||||||||#
 
#||||||||||#

In both of these layers, each bridge is connected to a different lever. To print a tile on the current layer, the bridges corresponding to the appropriate row and column are retracted, then a small amount of magma is let in.
 
 
 
Subsequent layers:
 
 
 
############
 
#          #
 
#          #
 
#          #
 
#          #
 
#          #
 
#          ###
 
#          X <-- water input
 
#          ###
 
#          #
 
#          #
 
############
 
 
 
Bottom layer:
 
 
 
############
 
#          #
 
#          #
 
#          #
 
#          ###
 
#          X --> water drain
 
#          ###
 
#          X <-- water input
 
#          ###
 
#          #
 
#          #
 
############
 
 
 
Operation:
 
  For each layer, repeat the following:
 
    Flood the layer with water
 
    For each tile, repeat the following:
 
      Retract the bridges corresponding to the desired row and column.
 
      Let in a small amount of magma.
 
      Unretract the bridges once obsidian forms.
 
  Close all water inputs
 
  Open the water drain
