Print All General Journal Entries by Year in QuickBooks 2020

I've seen similar questions asked but the answers don't apply as 
they functions and steps listed do not exist on my version.  
I'm using QB 2016 Desktop version for Mac.

I want to print all transaction in the GENERAL JOURNAL ONLY, 
not every single transaction in all accounts, which is the only option 
I can seem to print.

When I select REPORTS and go to ACCOUNTANT and select JOURNAL all 
I get is a date range and then what columns to view.  
I do not get an option for specific accounts or the general journal only.  
All I want to do is print the adjustment entries that 
I made but it seems to not be possible.  
I get all kinds of option to select what columns/items gets printed, 
but not the report I want to print.

When viewing the actual General Journal Entry window all 
I can do is print one individual entry at a time, 
which is useless in my opinion, but I can't print the entire 
journal with all transactions.

This should be a simple, straight forward process.
