It's such a small combine, you don't have to do anything except move the frames into the new box. If you want to spray some vanilla, that's fine but we move bees around all the time and they don't fight unless they are a larger organized hive.
If you do have a larger combine to do, it helps to confuse the bees as much as possible. Vanilla, smoke, and brushing bees off their frames into the hive will add to confusion and break up any organized defensive behavior. I've never seen a need for a newspaper combine if the bees have been queenless for a while. If you are stacking one large hive on top of another, maybe then you could use newspaper.
