We usually manufacture all our own packages for our toys.

But every minute I'm spending messing with a printer or assembling a box is time that I'm not spending making toys.

So I'm looking for a reliable, reasonably high quality service to print packaging for our toys.

Search in the modern era is ass. It's useless.

So, I'm looking for personal recommendations. Do you have any experience with any box/packaging printers that you can recommend (or recommend against)?

@ajroach42 hopefully you find more and better results. General printing companies may do it or have leads on others that do. Locally where I am, I see a few small and large printers that claim to do it.
The equipment for package printing in high volumes is somewhat specialized. Some package manufacturing companies likely have print options too or know some of their customers who do.
I used to work in high volume printing, and it is a fascinating process.
