Some tapes from this duplicator had a print date in dark ink, which was laid out like the following examples:

Example 1:

T-80 DFI 37288 11/10/93 09:36

Example 2:

T-115 DFI 106608.01 2ND 5/3/01

Example 1:

HTC-UNDERGROUND 106243.11 2ND 4/23/01

Example 2:

EWE THANKFUL 112086.05 2ND 10/22/02

Tapes from this duplicator do not have anything in the vertical blanking interval.
Two known copies of The Buttercream Gang and Willy the Sparrow by these duplicators have a code with a date and a clock on the bottom of the screen at the end, similar to what CDI Media did, sticking out from the bottom of the vertical blanking interval on their tapes.
Much like most tapes by Mirror Image Duplication Services, Cassette Productions, West Coast Video Duplication and New Age Video, some tapes from this duplicator had a few extra seconds of black screen following the blank space at the tail end, accompanied by a rumbling sound in the linear track. However, some tapes from this duplicator from the late 1990s/early 2000s have the static roll of death at the end.

An example of what print dates on tapes from this duplicator looked like.
An example of the code at the end of one known copy of The Buttercream Gang by The Duplication Factory.
