Hi there, @WHills. I'm here to help you print your 1099-NEC forms.
Yes, QuickBooks Desktop supports 3-up 1099-NEC printing. Make sure to update your QuickBooks Desktop file to the latest release for your 1099s to print correctly. Be sure to select the Reset Update checkbox.
- Click Help and select Update QuickBooks Desktop.
- Go to the Update Now tab.
- Select all needed updates and then click Reset Update.
- Click Get Updates.
Then, get the latest payroll tax table update.
- Go to the Employees menu and select Get Payroll Updates.

- Check the Download Entire Update checkbox.
- Select Download Latest Update.
Once done, follow these steps to print your 1099s:
- Go to Vendors, then select 1099 Forms, then Print/E-file 1099 Forms. Create your 1099s.
- In the Choose a filing method window, select Print 1099-NEC or Print 1099-MISC.
- Specify the date range for the forms, then choose OK.
- Select all vendors you wish to print 1099s for.
- Select Print 1099. Select Print 1096s instead, if printing Form 1096.
- Double-check your printer settings, then select Print.
