I would not recommend it -- cello is permeable and any ink could soak through to the wrapper.

You can buy blank cigar bands and use those. There are many kinds and even some that you can stick in a printer if you are so inclined...

There is also an excel file floating around here that will allow you to put the marca and type, date and size on a nice little band. Ive used it and its great.

I have done it for years with no problems using a Sharpie. If you don't wan't to do that, I have also written the date on the cap of the cigar itself with a fine Sharpie with no ill effects.
