	If you can find one of the older Brady label printers on greed-bay, such as the LS2000 or similar, there are very suitable labels available through any Brady distributor (Graybar Electric is a good example) for EPROMs and other electronic usage.

	Another workable alternative is one of the generic thermal-transfer printers, such as the Brother or Casio units widely sold by Office Despot. I've found that the half-inch black-on-white tape works great on standard-size EPROMs, while the quarter-inch tape is suitable for skinnier ICs such as PROMs or PALs.

	Happy hunting.
