Buy nowI can NOT get my payroll checks to print correctly. I have QB approved checks. Every single other check I print is correct, but not the payroll checks. The name is printed over part of the "Pay to the Order of" portion and the amount is way too far away from the dollar sign. I have picked every single choice offered in the alignment settings, but every single choice I make is incorrect. How can I fix this?
