Creating Flag Labels
Flag labels wrap around a
wire or cable leaving the
text part of the label
extending out from the
cable. The text on Flag
labels is automatically
printed on both ends of
the label, leaving a blank
space in the middle that
wraps around the cable. When the label is applied
to the cable, both ends of the label are applied back
to back leaving a tail or flag. The result is a label that
can be read from both sides.
