It's not possible to edit the details of what prints on the form.
If the address is truncated, it probably means it doesn't fit in the box. Consider changing the Vendor address so that it will fit.
Welcome, @lorij1.
I’m happy to further assist you with editing the address box on the 1099 form. I’d recommend shorting the address to fit in the box. At, this time editing the size of the address box is not available.
I’m providing an article below about printing 1099 forms:
Let me know if there is anything else I can help with.
The address on the vendor is 5 lines but it's putting 3 of the lines on one when trying to print so you can't see the whole address.
Name
Attn
Address
Suite
City,State Zip
Printing like
Name
Attention,Address,Suite
City Sate Zip
How do I change this without having to change the billed from address?
Hello there, @chellezieme.
I hope your week has been well. It sounds like your printer needs to realign that way the numbers will line up with each line.
Here’s how to adjust your printer:

I am now facing the same issue. The remittance address is a PO Box and is different from the appropriate address for sending the W9. Doesn't seem like there is a way around this without changing the address in the vendor record back and forth.
Hi there, @mfranczyk.
I suggest checking the setup of the vendor's profile to successfully print the 1099s.
Here's how:
Let's go over some steps to fix the issue after confirming that everything is correctly set up. Troubleshooting printing problems needs technical expertise as the setup on each printer is different. With this, I suggest contacting your IT person or the printer manufacturer if you need further support
Before you start troubleshooting, check the following:
First, verify if your printer can print outside of QuickBooks using notepad.
If it worked after following the steps above, please check this article and follow step 3. If not, please follow step 2 to check if you get the same thing: Resolve printing issues.

It seems that Quickbooks Desktop has not taken into consideration that between the business name/individuals name and the address there are going to be more than 3 lines needed.quite often. There is no way the address can be truncated enough if you are sending a 1099-NEC that needs a client name, a c/o business name and an address and a city/state/zip. This is easily 4 lines and QB needs to be fixed rapido. How are we supposed to issue these forms, manually?
That's really bad. I'm using QB Desktop Pro 2020. Many of our clients have CPA's the 1099's that must be sent C/O their office. This means 4 lines of address are needed. There's certainly enough room under the Recipient's Name on the 1099-NEC. I can't believe QB has left us hanging like this during our busy season.
Hi there, @Glitterisgood.
This isn't the kind of experience we want you to have. You can file the 1099- NEC manually to the IRS. You can check out this article from the IRS website: About Form 1099-NEC,

The QB response did not address the problem which is that there is plenty of room on the form 1099 as it has 5 lines total, but if a QB address has 4-5 lines, QB combines all the lines into 3 when printing on the form making it totally unmailable.
I know how important it is to be able to print the 1099 form with the correct address format, LAvant.

I have a similar problem. When printing the IRS 1099 NEC form, the recipient's address is double spaced and will not fit into the space allowed. The return address is fine. I have spoken twice to a QB representative, was told it was a printer problem. I contacted the printer (brother) company and they said it was a QB problem.
We definitely want to have this sorted out to so you can print the form correctly, six6kids.
Printing issues can either be caused by damage components in QuickBooks Desktop or settings in your printer itself. Have you tried using a different printer? This will helps us isolate if this is a printer or a QuickBooks issue.
If it's happening on a different printer, it means that the issue stems from QuickBooks. Let me share these articles so you can troubleshoot and resolve the printing issue:
I can also see that you've already reached out to our phone support team about this issue. However, I would still recommend reaching out to them again in case you're still getting the same issue. The next agent to that will receive your call can take a look at the case documentations and check for other options that can resolve the issue.

I am trying to print my 1099s and the vendor address is double spaced. I have seen that many other people are having the same problem. I called QB this evening only to be told that I would have to pay for an additional service and upgrade to the newest version to get any assistance with this (also could barely understand the person I was speaking with). Has anybody found a solution to this? The return address is fine. Everything else I print aligns just fine.
Thank you for taking the time to reach out to us here on the Community page, cindyh05.
I'd like to reiterate of what my colleagues provided workaround. Let's ensure that you downloaded the latest release version of QuickBooks Desktop.

You guys are idiots. There is NO WAY to adjust the address. It is in QB 2022 and is just SET and the address lines are spaced far apaft when printing but NOT in the Address field. DUMB
Agree...I have had numerous 1099's returned by the post office because of this nonsense with the addresses. It's completely cutting suite numbers off. It's a QB's issue that was not properly thought out. I don't have this issue with my Sage software I use for other vendors.
