It's a Schaeffer panel, yes. I don't remember the exact picing, but it was
around 200 ... 250 Euros I think.

It's engraved, not printed. But ther is paint applied in the carvings (which
is
a considerable amount of cost.) Some of my panels are without paint,
especially the large JH-3200 which would have been totally unaffordable
with paint. But I think the blank aluminium colour for lettering is quite
nice
on the dark background, too. Saves a lot of money.

BTW, anyone ordering dark panels from Schaeffer ∗please∗ nag them
about re-introducing "dunkelbronze" colour! It's almost black, but
looks more valuable than plain black. Apparently no one knows this,
so they stopped making dunkelbronze because of lack of demand.
IMO ∗ever∗ black panel looks better in dunkelbronze! Especially
in combination with black knobs.
