Cindy,
I might be able to help you. I do some pad printing. I think you said the boxes are black and that the logo is black and red, mostly red. That may not work out too well since the red will not show up very well on black. Then how would you separate the black in the logo from the black substrate? I am willing to give it a try if you could send me a sample box to test ( also need the art work).
I am in southwest Arkansas. Where in Mississippi?

Something about running one color letting that dry and then having to run the second color letting that dry and so forth. He suggented that pad printing would probley be the best way to handle this job, and he does not offer pad printing.
I'm not sure as I personally don't do either process myself and don't know anything about the process.
Thanks Cindy

Cindy,
We use Mulholland Plastics in Fort Worth, TX for pad printing. They do very nice wholesale pad printing and screen printing work. They have done some very odd shaped items we have presented them with. 800-726-1445

ABS is very easy to print using the OEM, I have only printed on white though. It will withstand the temp I use for OEM transfer.
