Tapper bezel instructions (homemade ghetto version)...are these colors even close?

So I'm going to create my own ghetto version of the Tapper bezel instructions from a decent quality scan I have. My biggest issue is that I don't have an actual one for reference. Can someone with a Tapper take a look at this and tell me if the colors are even close?

Pretty darn close, yeah. Maybe up the contrast a bit - lighten the tan background slightly and darken the brown text. Hard to tell from a png vs. the printed final, but you're on target.

Do you know anyone have an original? This could easily be scanned, bit-mapped, retouched and outputted via screen printing or inkjet.

I don't have an original to go by but it looks good to me. Unless you have an original next to yours no one will ever know the difference.

Good work.

Are you volunteering? :p

Seriously though, I might send you the original scan so you can provide some tips on optimizing it.
 
So I finally got around to printing this out, and it looks pretty good. Question though...what's the best way to adhere it to the back of the bezel without worries it's going to pull off any of the ink? Some kind of low-tack glue?

I'm sure it looks fine. Just black text right? Turn it into a 600 DPI Bitmap Tif and print it out on high quality paper. Just trim it tight... Personally I'd just put a couple of "very thin" pieces of masking tape.

Sorry I dropped the ball on this.
