After a spate of mysterious cable disappearances, I thought I'd resurrect this thread and see if anyone has any new favourites?
What have been the major advances in labelling technology in the past 4 years?? I'm looking for something for something affordable to help me retain some of my thin copper assets

If you're making labels to go onto your cable stock then you want to stay away from thermal printers. When you put heatshrink over them the heat from the shrinking process will turn them totally black.
If you're doing a load all in one go then buying the sheets of stickers you can feed through a normal laser printer works well with adhesive lined heatshrink over the top, just keep them as small as possible so the paper doesn't tear when the cable flexes. |

Thanks for the advise against thermal.
In the end I found the B18 from Nimbot. It's a Bluetooth controlled carbon transfer printer so doesn't have these issues. Would highly reccomend to anyone else! Is it possible to get heatshrink that can be slipped over nl4 and xlr connectors and still shrink enough? To avoid having to remove the connectors from all cables |

You can get 4:1 ratio heat shrink which might do it but you would end up with quite a thick lump by the time it's shrunk down that far.
20mm diameter should fit over an NC3MXX For speakon you might be out of luck even if your speaker leads are fairly chunky |
