How to Tell
- Most tapes did not have any form of printing; however, some had the Vaughn V printed above the recording tab, with a number representing the tape length next to it, while others had a small V-XX tape length above the recording tab and an equally-sized long string of numbers on the spine like this for example:
V-60 2-9406080134
- Early tapes had dark red printings like this for example:
[Vaughn V]3286 159900
- Tapes with these dark red printings had a few extra seconds of black screen following the blank space at the tail-end.
- Not a single tape from this duplicator had anything in the vertical blanking interval.
