Print All Returns on Form 1040

Desktop · Written guide Content date 1 min read

For years prior to 2018, Tax Processors Plus Desktop will always generate both Form 1040, as well as Form 1040-A or Form 1040-EZ for taxpayers who qualify to file on either of those two forms. For tax years 2020 and later, the program will generate both the 1040 and 1040-SR if the taxpayer qualifies. If you prefer to have all tax returns print on Form 1040, even when Form 1040A, Form 1040EZ or 1040-SR would be acceptable, from the Main Menu of Tax Processors Plus Desktop on the transmitting computer select:

  • Configuration
  • Printer/Copies Setup
  • Edit Individual Print Options
  • Select any print option from the drop down box at the top of the table. Locate the line items for Form 1040A, Form 1040EZ, and 1040-SR
  • Change the number of copies to 0
  • You will be asked, Would You Like to Clear the Number of Copies for All Print Options? Select YES
  • Select Done
