You pretty much have to mark your Titleist now. The practice has become so prevalent that it makes sense. Also, many players now play Titleist balls, so marking yours will help sort things out if you and one of your playing partners get confused.
If you're playing in a tournament, be sure to show your playing partners your Titleist, noting both the number and the mark.
If you take a ball out of play or have to get a new ball because you've lost yours, mark it promptly. If you do this in the fairway, be sure to show your playing partners the new ball once you arrive at the next tee.
