As Tim has said already, Gabi's solution does not work (unless they just made a change to it). How old is this thread, at least two years and absolutely nothing from Intuit that addresses the issue accurately.

Note that if Gabi's solution actually printed the ERO's name on the 8879 (and any applicable state form also), that would be an acceptable solution. If the software could print the ERO's name on the 8879 that would clearly meet the requirements of Notice 2017-79 and we would put an end to this thread.
