Checks

Set up included check printing

Checks print in the right place on your stock, with the numbers recorded, using the check printing included on every plan.

Who this is for

Owner, admin or bookkeeper.

Before you start

A bank account in the Chart of Accounts.
Check stock and a printer.

Availability

Included on every plan, in the hosted app and the local build. Blank-stock bank details stay in an encrypted profile on the device that printed them.

Steps

Open Checks, select the correct bank account and choose Print queue.
Use compatible preprinted check stock with bank details already on the paper. Choose voucher, standard or wallet layout.
Print the alignment grid on plain Letter paper at 100% scale, with browser headers and footers off. Compare against your stock and adjust horizontal and vertical offsets.
Check the starting number against the stock before printing selected checks. Inspect the printed pages before confirming successful printing.
Check-printing software is included. Check setup supports encrypted device-local profiles and blank business stock with a licensed E-13B font and bank-confirmed calibration. You supply the printer, appropriate ink/toner and stock. Print-and-mail services are not included.

What you should see

A test check lines up with the stock and Print selected checks records the numbers used.

If it goes wrong

If fields print off by a fixed amount, adjust Shift right (inches) and Shift down (inches) and print the grid again. If your browser blocks the print window, allow pop-ups for the page. Confirm the first printed check with your bank before paying anyone with blank stock.
