I use a Brother P-Touch labelmaker to make labels for my electronics
equipment.  Stores sell sell dry transfer tapes for the P-Touch,
but I use the adhesive tapes is comes with instead.

Sears and Service Merchandise sell the P-Touch for $135-$150.
 
The new 1993 Radio Shack catalog shows what appears to be a RS
clone of the P-Touch on page 143 for $150.
