Title: custom printed legends, media keys
Post by: Zobeid Zuma on Sat, 02 December 2017, 21:39:09
I've already had a custom keyset printed by WASD, and they're great—if you are OK with thin ABS and OEM profile.  They're very well made, but I wish for some other options, especially in a non-sculpted profile.  If only somebody was custom printing DSA sets…

I've noticed that Signature Plastics do some limited custom dye-sub printing, as per their website.  If you buy a print-to-order DSA or G20 set, you can order additional keys with it, as long as they have "standard legends", meaning something that SP already uses in a set.  And yet, for example…  They don't seem to offer media keys (pause/play, next track, prev track, mute, vol up, vol dn) anywhere, in any set, in any profile.  So, I assume those are non-standard.  It's a bit frustrating because I can buy those keys from Unicomp for my IBM keyboards with no problem!  Why not from SP?

You might be able to contact them about making a custom set.

I asked about a 60% doubleshot set a few years ago and was given a quote for 1 set.
