Right now I use a PTouch PT-1300. It really isn't suited to cable
labelling because the stock it prints on isn't flexible enough to stay
fixed in place for a long time, so I'm thinking of investing in a more
appropriate labeller. Can anyone recommend their favorite cable
labelling printer and printing stock (or any other solution that your
prefer)?

Thanks, Andy

The ones everybody uses are from Brady. Some of them print on plastic
that wraps around the cable, some of them print on heat-shrink tubing,
some of them print on the cable directly. Some of them will do all of
the above.

Currently do something similar, but I use a sleeve of clear heatshrink
over the label. Gotta remember to do this before attaching the connector
though.
