Sure, until you have to label 1000 things in a few hours. I find it's  
hard to get the backing peeled off (although my Ptouch doesn't have  
the little feature that nicks the edge to make it easier).


Actually, you can order cables already pre numbered and labelled.  Why  
burn expensive cluster assembler time when you can pay someone  
(potentially offshore) to do it cheaper.
