Doing a job for <Major Department Store in every Mall> we used something like these: https://www.amazon.com/Mr-Label-Self-Laminating-Around-Cable-Labels/dp/B078XR72Y7
They are designed to use with a printer, but you can do marker. They're about 4"x2" with a white bit in the middle. They wrap around for custom fit and cover the written part of the label with the clear portion of the label.
So, conclusions, -0.5 for wanting to use a full-size printer, +1 for adhesion, +1 for protecting label surface.
After this gets delivered (or maybe before), I would go ahead and terminate the office side of the cables you need to connect. That way you can connect the tone generator side to the cable then go find the other end in the bundle. Be aware that sometimes the tone receiver (the part with the metal tip) needs to almost be in contact with the wire in order to receive the signal depending on how long the run is and how cheaply made the tone generator is.
Also these ( https://www.amazon.com/Mr-Label-Self-Laminating-Around-Cable-Labels/dp/B078XR72Y7 ) or these ( https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01K6MJWLE ) should help to fix the problem for the future. Or just a regular label maker and some clear tape would work as well.
Need to label some cables and am looking for something like this (self-laminating wrap around label), but cannot find anything similar sold online in Japan. Closest I could find was this. Figured I'd just take it apart and write on them manually. Anyone got any tips?
