Printing AP checks from multi user mode in QuickBooks Desktop

We use Quickbooks Desktop Enterprise 22.0.

Suddenly, I am unable to print AP checks while in Multi-user mode and have to switch to single user mode.

We do not print a signature on the checks.

Any idea why I would have to be in single user mode?

Printing AP checks from multi user mode in QuickBooks Desktop

Hi, @Curious6

 

Printing AP checks in a multi-user mode is possible in QuickBooks Desktop (QBDT). If you can't print your transactions, I recommend running updates to keep your software up-to-date and fix common issues like printing checks.

 

Here's how:

 

  1. Close your company files and QuickBooks.
  2. Open the Windows Start menu.
  3. Search for QuickBooks Desktop. Right-click the icon and select Run as administrator.
  4. While on the No Company Open screen, go to the Help menu and select Update QuickBooks Desktop.
  5. Go to the Options tab. Select Mark All and then select Save.
  6. Go to the Update Now tab and select the Reset Update checkbox.
  7. Click on Get Updates.

 

When the update finishes, close and reopen QuickBooks, then select Yes to install updates. You can also restart your computer to start fresh.

 

Additionally, you can open this article for additional resolution: Troubleshoot PDF and Print problems with QuickBooks Desktop. It gives you insights on how to run the QuickBooks Print & Print Repair Tool from the QuickBooks Tool Hub to isolate printing errors in QBDT.

 

If you're getting the same result while printing the entries in multi-user mode, I recommend reaching out to our Support Team so a live agent can look and investigate this behavior securely.

 

Post again if you have any other questions while printing your checks and other entries. I'll be right here to help. Keep safe!

Did you ever get a fix for this issue? I'm suddenly having the same problem. Quickbooks support was not helpful. Said I would need a paid subscription to support for them to help me?! Thanks.

Did all of this. No difference. It will not print except in single user mode. I have Quickbooks Desktop 2020; find it hard to believe I can't get patch update for this issue; my program is only 2 years old. Frustrating to say the least.
