Is anyone else out ther ready to start a revolt regarding these micro W-2's that are being sent out.

every once in a awhile I get one with super tiny numbers, I toss 'em in the copy machine at 150% enlargement  LOL

The big companies are using the big payroll service providers. I don't think the print is any smaller than it was 50 years ago.  The programmers back then were 25 years old with perfect vision, and the programmers today are 25 years old with perfect vision.  Meanwhile, our eyes have changed.  

It doesn't help that IRS requires much more information on a W-2 than it did back in the last century.  I have one client who works for a major discount broker.  They can't get all the codes in Box 12 (C, W, D, DD, etc.) so they actually give him 2 W-2s, with one just for the spillover.  

I am glad others have had this problem. I was beginning to think it was only me.

The numbers were getting harder and harder for me to read last year ......................... and then I had cataract surgery and the numbers don't seem to be a problem anymore.

Thank you - yes - I thought my pop bottles were getting weak. the print is too small.

Back in the days when fax was common, W-2's were not any easier to read with those low resolution scans that came out just as fuzzy on the receiving end.  After a while, you get pretty good at making out those subtle differences between 5 and 6, 6 and 8, etc.

With the advance of technology, it's much easier to improve the legibility of poor photos and scans.
