Experience with 3D Printed Gears

Has anyone used 3D printed gears in transmission this year with good success?
I was primarily wondering about the viability of 3D printed gears for driving an absolute encoder, as nylon Hex Shaft gears aren't plentiful.

Please include the pitch and gear thickness if possible as well.
