Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

1. What kinds of Windows-based errors does 1099FIRE support for technical issues?

1099FIRE’s support section covers typical Windows-related problems such as “software appears too big or too small,” jumbled interface items due to DPI scaling, error messages like “The requested operation requires elevation,” or missing DLLs. These can occur when running tax-filing software on various Windows versions. The team offers guidance on adjusting screen resolution, DPI settings, or clearing the print queue to resolve layout and access issues.

2. How can I fix screen-size or layout problems when using 1099FIRE on Windows?

If the screen appears oversized or small, 1099FIRE recommends changing your screen resolution or display settings: e.g., on Windows XP go to Control Panel → Appearance & Themes → Change screen resolution; adjust toward higher resolution for sharper fit. The instructions help ensure the program interface appears correctly and avoids elements running off-screen or being unreadable.

3. What should I do when I get an elevation or missing-DLL error running 1099FIRE on Windows?

Messages like “The requested operation requires elevation” indicate that administrator privileges are needed. For missing DLL or “Debug Assertion” errors (like EnumPrinters.cpp line 361) you may need to reinstall the program, update Windows libraries, or install required components. The support team can arrange an appointment to walk you through these advanced fixes and ensure your system meets the software’s requirements.

4. Do I need special system requirements on Windows to run 1099FIRE properly?

The software runs on Windows operating systems (tested broadly across versions). While older support mentions Windows 7, Vista and later, you should ensure your machine has sufficient RAM, correct display resolution, and the proper driver setup. Ensuring display and driver compatibility will reduce UI glitches, printing issues, and unresolved windows-scaling errors.

5. How can I reach technical support if I encounter Windows-specific issues with 1099FIRE?

If you run into problems such as layout issues, screen resolution, missing DLLs or elevation requests, you can contact 1099FIRE’s technical support via phone at (480) 706-6474 or (877) 380-6474, or email support@1099fire.com. Setting up a support appointment through their support portal is recommended so they can assist with remote diagnostics and quick resolution.

I have used 1099 Fire for a number of years to prepare and file 1099 and NEC01 data for our multiple entities and highly recommend this service. It is easy to use, the data can be reviewed prior to sending and they mail the 1099/NEC's directly to the recipients, eliminating that hassle.

Best Customer Service on the market!!! 1095-C Software was easy to use, their sample document and instructional videos provided exceptionally clear instructions. We were doing a complicated process and the 1099Fire team, especially Dan and Amy went above and beyond to help us! I am extremely grateful we found them and cannot thank them enough for all of their help and expertise! We will absolutely use them again!!

We did it again! We have been using 1099Fire to generate our 1094’s and 1095’s since the Affordable Care Act was passed and the filings were required. The customer service is 5 stars! Dan, Amy, and Abby are always very helpful and professional. I would strongly recommend them for all your filing needs.

I'd tried a competitor but have never changed since trying 1099Fire. They PICK UP THE PHONE and help with issues. I've tried both outsourcing to them (ACA reporting) and doing it myself, using their software. I went back to outsourcing, seeing how much time it can take to fix errors, how many complications can arise, and how much the IRS can F__k you for getting this wrong. Highly recommend 1099Fire! Dan and Amy are phenomenal!
