Label maker

Does anyone have a particular brand/model of label maker that they like, for identifying cables and switches?

Right now, I'm using a Panduit LS7, which works pretty well, but it's been discontinued a while and now label cartridges are becoming impossible to find. I'd like to find something that can label both switches/servers and cables, 3/4" tape would be nice, and preferably labels that don't fade out too badly over time.

I use this for labeling wallplates, cables, patch panels, and devices...Dymo 5200 http://www.amazon.com/DYMO-Rhino-5200-Hard-case/dp/B002M1HKLC
It's handheld, rechargeable, and has built-in templates for different panel types and cables. Never fades and sticks great.

Anyone used a Brother P-Touch Edge 7600? The tape sure seems cheaper than the Dymo.

I use a Panduit LS9 and love it. I have also used the Brother P-Touch, it is a good choice as well.
