I'm wondering if these could be 3D printed:

If by 3D printed you mean FDM/FFF/GGG**, yes but it would not be nearly
as smooth. You could use a composite filament for the main part of the
cone and switch a urethane foam for the edges. This is way beyond DIY
unless you are polymer chemist and can swap between using a hot melt
extrusion
The edges really need to be made of rubber or foam not 3-D printed plastic
possibly a paper cone could be replaced by printed plastic. If this is a
critical application like hi-fi for musical instrument speakers the weight and
stiffness of the paper cone matters a lot changing it will affect
And then attach the paper?
