Also, P-touch label longevity depends on the ink color used. Black lasts a lot longer than red or blue. The white background browns over a period of a couple of years in strong sunlight.
When I was in CO, I once, at great effort, ?labeled all of the drawers in my parts cabinets with P-touch labels. My lab was brightly lit by sunlight during the day. Those P-touch labels browned and the red and blue ink faded within a couple of years.I had to replace the labels and remember to keep the blinds down when I wasn't working in there.
Also, removing those labels is somewhat difficult.

They probably have longer time since used for wiring labels.
P-touch lasts maybe 7 years in sun, like vinyl lettering signs and most sign printing.
