No, do not mark "I need to prepare a substitute 1099-R."

In this case "Substitute Form 1099-R" simply means a Form 1099-R not prepared on an official IRS-approved printed form.  The payer has provided the same information in their own proprietary format and is to be treated the same as if it was on the official IRS Form.
