However, on some tapes, such as N64: Change the System, Against a Crooked Sky, A Girl of the Limberlost, and The Berenstain Bears and the Messy Room, Plus 3 More Berenstain Bears Stories, the printings just said the title.
- Tapes by this company until late 1999 have the white screen test pattern with a 1000hz tone at the end. On some copies of N64: Change the System, City of Angels, Wrongfully Accused, and The Avengers, as well as tapes from Goldstar Video, it was followed by the static roll of death.
- On copies of City of Angels, Wrongfully Accused, The Avengers, Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me, and tapes from Goldstar Video duplicated by this company, there is a notation printed underneath the label that says "MADE IN MEXICO." On a few other tapes, it was printed on the side of the tape.
- Starting around mid-1999, when the duplicator was fully acquired by Technicolor, the printings became similar to those of the latter.
- Until late 1999, shortly after its acquisition by Technicolor, tapes by this duplicator also had the BHCP codes like the ones used by Deluxe/Rank Video from 1987 to 1996.
- Several tapes printed in Mexico also had a silent white screen at the beginning.
