Because check scanners may reject checks that use an incompatible font style or size in the numeric dollar amount field, you can print only checks from Quicken that use Arial (font), Regular (font style), 10 pt (font size) in this field. Depending on your printer, you will be asked to adjust the coarse or fine alignment.Ĭheck 21 is a federal law enacted in 2004 to help banks handle more checks electronically.If the date or your logo gets cut off, clear the Use low starting position check box.If your printer skips checks or prints nothing, select Bypass the driver.Be sure the printer is turned on, is online, and is loaded with blank paper or a sample check.Choose a full page source, and if necessary, a partial page printing style and a partial page source.From the Printer list, select your printer.Choose File menu > Printer Setup > For Printing Checks.Position the checks vertically according to your printer type. You probably won't need to change the position of the paper clamps. Position the checks horizontally in the position you normally use for printing on 8.5-by-11-inch paper. If you have a continuous-feed printer, insert the checks as you would any continuous-feed printer paper. If you have a page-oriented printer, you can assume that you should insert checks in the paper tray or envelope feeder the same way that you would insert standard letterhead paper.
