A variation on the shrink tubing idea:

I like the idea of being able to add a label *after* a wire has been
inserted in a connector. This can be driven by several things; 'I
forgot', 'I'm chasing unlabeled wires', etc. I've played with a decent
label maker, but while its labels stick tenaciously to just about
everything, the adhesive doesn't stick well to itself, when folded over
the wire to make a 'flag'.  Anyone tried this that can recommend a brand
that works?

Thanks,

Charlie

In the datacenter / networking world, the two kinds the most common are wraparounds and flags that wrap around themselves.

If the label maker is truly decent and you're using the right materials, you shouldn't have much issues.

A lot of datacenter guys swear by Brady stuff which is on the expensive side, but really good. I have one; though I have not tried their flag and wrap around labels.

Explore BMP21 printer (https://www.bradyid.com/en-us/product/bmp21-plus) and it's labels' selection (https://www.bradyid.com/resources/guides/bmp21-plus-labels-guide)...
