Best Cable Identifier tags

I`m about to do a massive re arrange of electronics in my house due to painting, and was wondering what any of you guys recommend to tag or label all of your many and various different cables like Left, Right, Center, Surround Speakers, A/V gear, Power etc? Anybody have a favorite "cable label", and where did you purchase them?

Thanks

I use a Brother P-Touch labeler that takes "TZ" tape... You can find the labeler and flexible TZ type blank label tape cartridges at Staples.

The labels I made with my P-Touch about 6 years ago are fading away.

These are used a lot in professional wiring jobs, and the labels do not fade or lose their adhesion:

I would have to second the Dymo labels.

My company uses the wire markers in productions units that are outside.

I have seen labels that are a decade old and still readable.
