Epson Self-Laminating Overwrap Label Tape Instructions

Quick guide from the manual

The 224VSLPX and 236VSLPX are self-laminating overwrap label tapes designed for labeling wires and cables. The label consists of two parts: a white printable area and a clear overwrap area. To use, print on the white area, apply it to the wire or cable in a visible location, and then wrap the clear tail around the wire and over the printed surface to protect the tape.
