Is anyone else having trouble with check printing? Vender checks work sortof but paychecks do not align at all. I use the alignment tool and it isn't the same for both.

Even the font size and line spacing is different.  The memo line on the paycheck prints below the line on the check to be able to get the name, amount, address, etc. to be even close.  I used the alignment tool for the paycheck but the check doesn't print the same as it's set up for.

Hi Klutkenhaus,

 

Thank you for posting here in the Community space. I can help you fix the printing issue of your paychecks in QuickBooks.

 

If you use QuickBooks-compatible checks, ensure they are properly aligned when you print or reprint paychecks. We’ll show you how to fix the alignment in QuickBooks.

 

Here's how:

 

  1. Go to Settings ⚙, then select Payroll Settings.
  2. In the Printing section, select Edit ✎.
  3. Select Paycheck on QuickBooks-compatible check paper.
  4. Press Print paycheck and 1 pay stub or Print paycheck and 2 pay stubs.
  5. Click Align check, then select Print alignment form to print a sample check.
  6. Follow the instructions, then close the window.
  7. Follow the instructions, then enter the letter and number that fits best. Here are some tips on how to adjust the alignment.
  8. Select Save, then hit Done.

 

Additionally, make sure your printer is set up for QuickBooks so your checks align and print out correctly. We’ll show you how to use the print setup and align your printer settings through this link: Configure your print settings for printing checks in QuickBooks Online.
