If the comptroller ceases to hold or perform the duties of office, existing stocks of warrants bearing the person's printed name, signature, or facsimile signature may be used until they are exhausted, and the person succeeding to the office or the duties of the office shall have the warrants issued with:
(1) the obsolete printed name, signature, or facsimile signature struck through;
(2) the successor's printed name substituted for the obsolete printed name, signature, or facsimile signature; and
(3) the inscription "Printed name authorized by law" near the successor's printed name.
