I lost my W-4's from previous years.?
Besides contacting my employers, of which I think I had four and am not completely positive, what can I do to recover them? Will the IRS send me a copy of them if I pay? Thanks!

It's not the W-4, it's the W-2.
The irs can send you a free copy of the federal data. This does not include state income tax withheld.
Use irs form 4506-t.

You didn't lose you W4 because a W4 is the withholding form you provide to your employer(s) if anything you lost your W2's, so now with that said, you can download form 4506-T from the IRS website www.irs.gov and mail to appropriate address, or you can call IRS Telephone Assistance for Individuals:
Toll-Free, 1-800-829-1040
Hours of Operation: Monday – Friday, 7:00 a.m. – 10:00 p.m. your local time (Alaska & Hawaii follow Pacific Time).
You can obtain W2/1099 wage information by calling (800)–829–1040 and following the prompts in the recorded message or by completing and mailing Form 4506-T (PDF), Request for Transcript of Tax Return, to the address listed in the instructions. Forms can be downloaded at www.irs.gov or ordered by calling 800–829–3676.
Or visit your local IRS office, take your photo ID, and they will print them out while you wait.
If you have received a letter/notice from the IRS to file your tax returns, then call the phone number listed on the letter and they will also mail the w2 to you. You must have all previous tax returns filed before you file 2008 because if you don't then when you file 2008 IRS will Hold your refund until they receive all your tax return and process the tax return (processing of tax return for 2007 and prior take 6-8 weeks)

I think you are asking if you lost your W-2 from last year. This being the case you can call the IRS and request a copy of your IRS Income & Wage report which will list your earnings and your withholdings. Check out the website below for some really great ideas on tax issues.
