We use the Hart system here. There is a QR code but it does not contain the voter's choices. The choices are printed on the ballot by the DUO machine which is where we vote and then print our ballots. Our scanner picks up the written description, giving us a 100% paper trail.

The QR code contains the ballot number precinct and ballot form information The ballot number is added when the ballot is printed. Our ballots are blank when we start out
