Comment :  The relevant section covering VVPAT is § 6.8 Requirements for Voter Verified
Paper Audit Trail (Optional).
That section, while voluntary, appears to cover any system that may print a voter
verified audit trail or ballot (“This section contains requirements for Voter Verified
Paper Audit Trail (VVPAT) voting systems. VVPAT is not mandatory. These
requirements are provided for system certification testing for those states that have
decided to include VVPAT as a requirement for their voting systems.”)
