do I need to attach the original Copy B of W-2 to my tax returns if I am mailing them?

The File by Mail Instructions for my 2021 Federal Tax Return from TurboTax ask to "Attach the first copy or Copy B of Form(s) W-2 to the front of your Form 1040."

I don't have the original physical W2 but have the pdf of my W2 that I downloaded from the ADP website. Would a printed copy suffice in lieu of the original that my employer had given me?
