Once you select the documents you’d like to print, click the “Print” button above your “Filings.”

Select “Print onto Pre-Printed IRS Forms.”

After this, you’ll scroll down where you'll see our handy feature that lets you modify your data alignment. You can move your data right, left, up or down using the adjustment indicators on the Print Menu.

Simply enter a number in the hundredths box and select right/left or up/down from the dropdown options to adjust.

You can return to adjust the alignment as needed after each test run until you're satisfied with your results.

Tip 1 : It’s a good idea to load plain paper in your printer for your first test print to check the alignment. That way, you don’t waste pre-printed forms! Just hold your plain paper print in front of a form.

Tip 2: It’s an excellent idea to check your printer settings before you begin.

The leading cause of avoidable form alignment issues are hidden printer settings for scaling and fit to page.

You can typically find scaling options in your printer’s system dialog under Printer Properties, Preferences or Advanced settings.

In this example, you can see the additional scaling settings for a Brother printer, as well as scaling settings in print preview. Here, scaling should be set to “Off” and set to 100%.

Below, we also see the scale set to Custom and 100%

Good on you! You’ve adjusted your print alignment!
