What kind of print is used on the keys, the cheap type that rubs off over time leaving keys you can't read with repeated use, or laser etch etc?

Don't know what technique was used but the keys show no wear in all the time I've had it. This is a first class keyboard.

don't really use it much so no wear is apparent. But keys are smooth without any indention. Keyboards are so inexpensive I'm not overly concerned about longevity. Good luck.

Although I can only offer an opinion as I don't know this for a fact but I do not believe these keys are etched. My old standby was etched and just died like 6 months ago. It was still as nice with all the characters crisp and clear as when I plugged it in for the first time. I did not realize how rare this was until I saw other boards much newer than my old one that looked 4 times older with shiny blank or chipped character keys. Sorry I could not be more help with a definitive answer. I can tell you so far, the print is fine but it has only been 7 months max.

The keyboard is hard plastic. The keys stand out under your fingers just like a laptop keyboard.

The keys ar not glossy, but the rest of the keyboard is. That is the only thing I'm unhappy about with mine. I don't have any white blotches, but it shows fingerprints and dust. I'm still extremely happy with mine, though. The great typing experience outweighs having to clean it periodically.

I have had no problems with the keys imprinting on the screen. Sorry it took me so long to respond. I am a little slow getting to my emails. Take care.

I have not used the keyboard a lot but unfortunately I am starting to see it. Maybe shark could send us stickies for the keys.

I have no idea. I can tell you that I have already replaced this keyboard with one that is supposed to be more durable. I ran into a problem with the "E" key not registering each stroke.

When I talked to support I suggested they change the keyboard embossing. If you can figure it out let me know. I just decided to use my old keyboard.

Like most keyboards, the letters/numbers/symbols are printed directly on the keys. Thank you,

To be honest I stopped using it due to the keys sticking or just out right not working, still use the leather case though.

It has precisely the same sound as the rest of the keys. I complained earlier that keys were sticking with increased regularity. A few months into using it, this sticking problem seems to have worked itself out. I do not know whether this is a result of a break in period or change of season. :) I am happy with the keyboard's performance now and would recommend its purchase.

The ones I received were larger print than the original keyboard letters. Maybe they are different?

It's a real keyboard, it does have touch pad. Although after a month or so the keys tend to wear out, I have been using this for a year now and the spacebar key is already spoiled. Other keys are still intact. Build quality is a little poor.

After about a year of daily use the more used keys have formed a slight bump on them which does touch the screen.

I think it might be laser-etched. It isn't deeply stamped or anything, but there is a texture to it like something that has been laser-etched. Whatever it is, it seems to last. I ordered these and the progressive magnetic set at the same time, and the printed ink on the progressive set (which to be fair was half the price of the CIA set) has worn completely off my most used spoons since May 2012 when I got them. These look brand new.

The keys are about the same size as the keys on my other keyboards, the letters are about twice normal size. They areeasier to see because of the bright yellow color of the keys, and the large size of the letters, but the black lettering wears off quickly; this is a cheap, poor quality, overpriced keyboard. I bought mine at a 67% discount, and it was still overpriced.

Thank you. You should be able to discuss this with the manufacturer as to why the letter vanish. I am sure I can buy a new one, but I had a keyboard for 10 years that was still quite legible. The one that came with the PC is shabby. Also, please tell me why this computer is listed now at $845.00 ... Did I receive a used one ?

I'm sorry you have had problems with your other keyboards. My first "Keys U See" lasted three years. I replaced it with a second one which is still going strong after two years. I don't use it every day, but when I take it to my adult education classes, sometimes three in a week, I am often typing for 1 1/2 hours straight. I recommend downloading frequently to avoid losing documents in case there is any problem. I'm glad I have this keyboard and recommend it to anyone. If you have any more questions, please let me know.
