The following section offers assistance and tips
regarding printing the P14/P60 Year End forms.
Check which version of IRIS PAYE-Master is currently in use –
you must have v5.6.4 installed. Please click here to download.
Click the Year-End drop down menu and select ‘Print Laser/Inkjet
P14s’ and then choose the option ‘Print Laser/Inkjet P60s’ or
‘Print Continuous P14/P60s’ as appropriate.

When printing using Laser/Inkjet forms there
are four different colour forms to print, therefore you need to do
FOUR individual print runs, changing the coloured form each
time.
When printing using 4-part Continuous forms,
only ONE print run is needed as all four copies will be printed at
the same time.
The P14 forms should be distributed according
to the colour of the form:
- P14 (orange copy) goes to HMRC
- P14 (green copy) goes to HMRC
- P14 (black copy) is a file copy and should be
kept for your own records
HMRC prefer to receive the forms
alphabetically, by surname.
TIP: To do this simply ensure
that you have selected the ‘Surname’ sort order within the print
dialog window.
You should check the alignment prior to
printing the forms. It is recommended that you test on plain paper
and avoid wasting your Year-End stationery. In order to check the
alignment of the forms for a single Employee please click on the
select button and enter a page range from 1 to 1. Now, click ‘OK’
on this screen and continue to click ‘OK’ on the following screens
to print the report.
Compare your plain paper report to the
supplied Year-End stationery. Please note that the alignment of the
printing needs to be very precise;
the forms will be rejected if any of
the printing touches or crosses the boxes.
If the printing needs to be realigned, click
on the margins button and adjust your margins accordingly. Suitable
margins to begin with are:
Top margin 0.51”
Left margin 0.51”
Line height 240
Please note that the margin settings can vary
depending on the printer. You will need to repeat the steps until
you are happy that the forms correctly align.
TIP: Bureau users: Setting
the correct margins in one company will automatically set the
margins for ALL other companies.
For more information on margins, please use
the Help file in IRIS PAYE-Master. Search for "General Print
Adjustments".
