There are numerous manuscripts of the "1418 Werkstatt" among the German Heidelberg manuscripts. I do not remember having seen much of this "1420 Werkstatt" but I understand that it was also in Elsass.
In general, I do not see such a workshop as a likely origin for the Voynich MS, but I understand that this is not your point. The handwriting in the Voynich MS marginalia also does not match any Alsatian MS I have seen.
It could be someone close to it, or someone who had one of these manuscripts in his collection (or someone else's collection to which he had access).
