Just efiled State and Federal, but PA requires a paper sign off?

So I just e-filed and submitted my taxes for Federal and PA state tax. However when filing I got a prompt saying that PA requires a paper sign off with a PA-40 form. Do I still need to manually fill that form out and mail a physical copy in, or will the e-filing suffice?

If it was a PA-8879, you do not have to mail it in, it an authorization for the efile.  There will be a copy in the TurboTax records for you.
