If a vote counting machine MUST be able to print (such as a stamp to say it was counted on machine#/date/time/location# and validation code) - why can't that ink be a specific color?
UV visible only? Red, green, blue? Why would it be the same 'color" as the ballot or a black pen?
Simple questions, one could also ask why it would print at all, if all the above could be done with a hand stamp, with complete traceability.
There is no valid reason for the machine to have the capability to print at all.
