Adams® Tax Forms Helper® makes it easy to print a single tax form. First, from your dashboard, go to “Forms.”
Check the box for the single form you want to print. We’re selecting a Federal 1098.
Click “Print.”
Next, tell Adams Tax Forms Helper whether you’d like to print your data onto IRS-approved tax forms, or if you’d like to make plain paper copies. Here, we’ll print onto a blank sheet of paper for records or recipient copies with a watermark. You'll need a *Print Access Code if you want to print tax forms without a watermark, or you'll need to purchase Self-Print in the Helper. *A Print Access Code is only necessary for 2025 forms to print. Previous years' forms will print without it and without a watermark.
Note: you cannot print a Copy A form when printing onto a blank sheet.
Next, click Print Forms
Click the print icon in the upper right of your screen.
Click “Print” and your form will go to your printer.
Tip: Official IRS copies must be scannable, meaning they’re printed with a special red ink that can be read by Optical Character Recognition (OCR) technology.
Tip: It’s a good idea to load plain paper in your printer for a test print. That way, you won’t waste your pre-printed forms! Just hold your plain paper print in front of a form to check the alignment.
Before you run that test print!
It’s also an excellent idea to check your printer settings before you begin.
Tip: The number one cause of avoidable form alignment issues are hidden printer settings for scaling and fit to page. Be sure to check that your Scale is set to Custom and 100%.
You can typically find scaling options in your printer’s system dialog under Printer Properties, Preferences or Advanced settings.
Correcting alignment issues
If your print settings were fine and your test print still revealed some alignment issues, Adams Tax Forms Helper Online can help you make some adjustments.
So, let’s go back to the print menu.
From the Print Menu screen, you can move your data right, left, up or down using the adjustment indicators. You can alter your margins in the adjustment fields.
Good on you! You’ve successfully printed a single form!
