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.
