Brain Potter,

A 330 FWC new standard assumes no paper checklist usage if evacuation is required after an RTO due to either ENGINE or APU FIRE.
It is not your problem if the airplane is stuck on the runway after a successful and professional RTO due to FIRE.

Make it simple, follow ECAM, shutdown all engines. Do not worry about dark cockpit to search paper checklist; if evacuation is required keep reading ECAM in front of you which keeps displaying same items for evacuation which is normally available in QRH.

If you do not believe me, when you are doing fire test on ground, do not release test button after CRC (but of course silence it), now keep reading FIRE ECAM steps on E/WD, if you keep clearing till end (green arrow), you will see all QRH Evacuation Paper Checklist items are there.
