|  |     Oh yeah, I should explain how the original became one-sided in the
    first place.  It's because I used macintax on my father's computer
    whose laser printer only prints single-sided.

|  | Why not just send in the single-sided copy?  (Too much postage? :-) )

|  |     You must send in the original.  Single-sided is fine.

|  | There are instructions on the Mass forms that indicate that only 
original FORMS can be used.  Mass forms are apparently OCR'd (if not for
written content, then certainly for form ID and your little filled-in
ovals).

|  | I also received mail from Eric - I suppose the old saying "A lack of planning
on your part does not constitute an emergency on my part" has relevance here.

|  | Jeez, it's not that hard to put a bit of white paper over the sig and re-copy it
so you can re-sign it.

	I assume you mean xerographic copies.  The answer is: No.

	For federal, print a copy in 1040PC format, sign it and
	submit it. One side of one page covers the 1040 and most of 
	the common Schedules (at least A, B and D).
	Or print another copy of just the 1040 form, copy it 
	single->double sided, sign that and submit it.
	Or print the 1040 form even-pages-only, put the printed 
	pages into the paper tray and print again odd-pages-only.
	Sign it and submit it.

|  |     thanks, all, for your help.  I finally just signed in pen next
    to the xeroxed signature.  I hope they accept it.  /Eric
