Do you have to prime 3d printed objects? If not, just print the number and like dip into water paint. Ideally you could print a lip with higher numbers so only the top of the numbers get painted
If it’s bevelled text you can swap filament during print to make it stand out / easy to read.
Only problem is that you have to baby sit the print, which could slow down production considerably
Only issue with black marker on 3d prints specifically is the ink tends to wick around the layer lines. Still works but doesnt look great. Paint markers are usually my goto
Yup this issue you can see in my picture. I was hoping paint markers would have been viscous enough to not bleed but it did anyways. Not that big of a deal for a fire and forget box of whistles.
