1040-SR (and 1040) Line 16 represents the total tax you have been charged for the year by the IRS, including ordinary wage tax, capital gains and dividends tax, and others.

Hi!  Much of the instructions above is for the Canadian version of TurboTax.   US TurboTax does not use that method to get to the Print Center.  And in the desktop software steps you mentioned above, Netfile is a Canadian feature.  I believe they were taken from a Canadian FAQ rather than a USA FAQ.
