Hi Ron,
Waterslide Decal Transfer Paper ...
https://www.amazon.com/Transparent-Printable-Waterslide-Transfer-Tumblers/dp/B08DS2WNV2/ref=asc_df_B08DS2WNV2/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=475795069847&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=4638892906241057779&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9009567&hvtargid=pla-995300534375&psc=1
Ink Jet printer and some clear acrylic spray to top coat after installation.
An alternative is to use polycarbonate plastic ... paint the back
surface black (or any color you choose), when dry, you can reverse
engrave the back and fill the engraving with a contrasting paint color.
Finish up by another background color coat and you're done. You end up
(when using 0.125" thick material, a couple of mil thick panel with a
1/8" clear overcoat. Goof proof, but you do need some sort of engraving
equipment that doesn't discolor the material (I use my ShopBot with a
vacuum sub-table to do my engraving).
Waterslide Decals sound MUCH easier since you can test the final print
on plain (or glossy) paper before committing your decal paper to the
print process.
Hope this helps.

A small company called Pulsar Pro FX makes a kit for DIY dry transfer
decals. I use their PCB kit to great success, but haven't tried the
decals. It looks kinda complicated to me (trickier than the PCB kit),
but I figured I'd mention it:

I have a Brother label maker that takes various different 'ribbon' I
have black on clear, black on white, and gold on black.
This looks like the model I have.

I am building a box to handle CW (Morse code) and to switch headset
between PC and radio rig.
I want to have nice white on black labels for the knobs, buttons,
jacks on front and back.
How do y’all handle that?
Best,
