3/25/2019 UPDATED for 2018 returns:
Starting with 2018 returns, the IP PIN does print on the Form 1040 when filing by mail or when printing for your records. In previous years it did not. If you do not see the IP PIN when you print the Form 1040, then you likely have not entered it.
If anyone needs more info, then please start a new timely thread.
NOTE: The answer below was from 2 years ago and is no longer the case. It was for tax years prior to 2018.

OLD OUTDATED ANSWER
For security reasons, the IP PIN does not print on a copy of the return. So it will not display in the PDF or a print out.
If you are efiling the return, the IP PIN data will be sent in your electronic transmission.
If
you are going to file by mail, however, then you will need to write it
on the form in the correct place in the signature section.
