My experience in tags that resembled these is they were way too flimsy. But regarding a print label, I found that Avery 15667 lasted ten years without fading or deteriorating but you need a laser printer. I bought a new B&W laser printer for about a hundred bucks about 5 years ago and I haven't had to install the extra toner cassette I bought yet. Sure beats clogged inkjet cartridges all the time.
