Q: Why not make the keycap with inset/indent in the first place? (edited)
Cherry MX keycap with indent
The indent is achieved with a hot M6 cup head bolt (like DIN 603). Works great with the toner transfer technique.

@harshvishwak_2397632 You couldn't use the toner transfer technique or the z-hop technique to get the numbers on, and also you would see the layer lines.
@MartinP_420764 I have never used the toner transfer technique. Time to learn some new stuff then :)
Smart idea!
How did you do the white numbers on the black keys?
@Perchik It's a two color print. There's a white cylinder inlay in the black key. You basically print the key in black and the inlay in white. I uploaded the two files for the inlay version.
