Since W-2's can be filed electronically, we can issue "substitute" W-2's to employees. Using the IRS specs for substitute W-2 forms, Sage could include a W-2 (4-up) that could be printed on plain perf paper, instead of having to buy pre-printed forms and trying to get the data in correct alignment with the boxes. (Sage already does this with the 941 forms.) All they need are the boxes, box labels, header and footer, with the correct year printed on the report form. The data fields are already in the report form (in a very small font that I don't like). The IRS specs list the line thicknesses and font sizes recommended, basic positioning, etc. No special ink is needed.

GUAM needs something similar to accpac print to paper.
We cannot file electronically and would also like substitute W-2GU to employees.
Printing to plain white paper would be optimal.
As this tax season we had to manually print W-2GU from excel.
