Printing on PBT keys?
« on: Wed, 18 March 2015, 08:53:07 »
Hello,
I wanted to customize 5 key caps on my Realforce 87U 55g. That precisely 5 keys which would have printed extra characters ( I am using US,Swedish and Serbian keyboard layout every day).

Is this possible to do in some store that prints on plastic? If not, is it possible for some store to create completely new ones ( although this would be very expensive and risky I guess).

I don't know if this is possible considering most PBT caps are dye sub so it goes into the actual key, you might be able to get them lasered on but it might look different.
