This isn't even enough: you should check if the seed creates the same address again.
Why though?

I would never even try to copy an Address from a Seed that I have not backed up properly.  To me the verification part of my paper is part of a proper backup.  No point in writing down a Seed that may be wrong by a human mistake.

LoyceV is right here, don't ask me how I know, you can write the correct seed, but you can also make a mistake in writing down the address. I had a similar mistake, luckily it didn't cost me, but since then I've been making a seed&addy backup image, and I delete it only after checking, usually on another browser or even another computer.
