You could try Lazertrans sheets. There are various types available for  
different materials. It makes a decal that you can bake onto a panel.  
If I understand it right, it'll be easier to do dark letters on a light  
background, since printers don't come with white ink.

The best page I know about the various front panel techniques is:

I could only get the page from the Wayback Machine - I don't know  
whether that's a glitch here or if the page has gone:

Hope this helps,
