The ratings label "printing system" must be approved according to CSA.
Using your own printer, is probably ok if it has gone the scrutiny of
the CSA (or other agancy) Engineers (not inspectors) There are several
items to look for. Contact you local CSA or other safety agency and
they can help you. Things like ledgibility, indelibility, and material
are important.

I frequently have the need to create rating plates (or other labels) in
very low quantities. Obviously if you need hundreds or thousands of
labels there are manufacturers ready to provide them. What about these
low quantities? Does anyone have a recommendation. Perhaps a label with
a clear adhesive overlay, or something that can be used in a Lazer
printer? What about special typewriter inks. It seems to me that with
our present technology, we would have capabilities beyond typing these
labels. All comments are greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance
