Would you share the film and printer you used? I may not find the same ones but would know what to look for.

Here's the link to the exact item that I used: Printation mat transparent. Perhaps there are better ones, this is the first one with the decent responses that I've tried. It's designed to be printable with the laser printer (not inkjet!), the exact model does not matter I believe.

It might make sense to experiment with the plastic for 3D printing. PETG I've used is not the best choice to stick film to, it's possible that PLA or ABS will be better. But then again, I don't want the labels to be glued dead-on because the firmware is still evolving. Once the layout is stable, maybe it will make sense to treat the keys with some lacquer on top of the sticker labels for better results.
