Printing in Turbotax

HANSJ500 — Tue, 10 Feb 2026 10:15:33 GMT

I am using Turbotax for 2023 on an Apple Mini Mac OS Sonoma ver 14.1.2 OS

I want to print several worksheets using Shif Wind P as instructions say to use.

The correct printer shows in the window but the file never goes to the printer.

Other programs do print correctly, Turbotax does not.

What I would most like was a .pdf output instead of paper.

Please do not refer me to some "expert" that results in more confusion than it is

worth, just please correct the error in the turbotax program, because that is what it is.

Are you not able to save the file to a PDF then print from the saved PDF ?

It is not a bug ... you have always needed to save the tax file to a PDF file then use a PDF reader to view/print the return. The program does not have a PDF reader included in the program, never has.

I am not thinking the .pdf was a bug, but that the program does not print when I want to print out a worksheet or something like that. It said it can print, shows a printer, the correct one, but does not print. evidently you have

to print the long way, via the big .pdf file, and then print out the section you want. I thought there could be some' simpler way, But I guess not yet, When you find the problem you will update the program.

Thank you for the help.

In the DOWNLOADED version you can print individual forms in the FORMS mode but not in the ONLINE version.

When I try to print individual forms in my downloaded version,

this feature does not work in my downloaded version, although you say it should.

for the time being I have a work-around.

Probably what settings you choose on the Mac. Every year when I help my friend on her Mac I have to figure out how to print. It's in the print boxes somewhere.
