Our network cabling leaves a lot to be desired. There are cables here, there and everywhere. Half time when we are working in the network room, we are tracing wires to and from, etc.. At a previous job, we had some nice cable labels. They were adhered to the cable very well, didn't fall off, had to be ripped off to come off. The label machine I have now is a Dyno cheapo and the tape doesn't stick to shit, much less a cat 5 cable.
What do you guys use for labeling? I've tried a sharpie, but I need more info: from location (either host name/port or patch panel/port). I don't mind using a laser printer if the labels are worth using. I've seen a few options, but not sure how they stand up. I've seen an industrial label printer for ~$400, but that's not really in the budget for this. I'm looking at <$100 if possible.
