I don't recall the exact details, but one of the electronic voting systems would print out each vote behind a glass plate so that the voter could verify that their vote got processed correctly and in the event of any suspected fraud with the automated systems the paper ballots could still be counted.

Having observed the "audit" of the VVPAT, touch screens, etc. in my jurisdiction, when the paper tape was damaged, they just reprinted it. Which verified the printer was still working, at best.
