Checks printing multiple times in error

Hello there, TJ423.

 I'm here to ensure you can print check without error.

To start with, let's configure your printer settings. I'm here to guide you with the steps.

Here's how:

1. From the  + New tab, select Print checks.
2. Click Print setup.
3. Select your check type, voucher or standard.
4. Select View preview and print sample. Then select Print.
5. Follow the on-screen steps to finish printing your sample check.
6. Put the sample print under a blank check. See if they line up correctly.

If the same issue persists, let's update your Adobe reader. I've added this article for the detailed steps to update the adobe reader: Install or update Adobe Reader.

You can also browse this link if you need additional reference in printing checks: Print a check in QuickBooks Online.

I'll be around whenever you have concerns about printing checks.

This reply does not address the problem as described in the original post.

Our checks are aligned and our Adobe is up to date.

The issue is the following: let's say we print 50 checks on Thursday. Of those 50, 5 will print twice. So we have to void the duplicate copies of those 5 checks. Sometimes, a check will actually print 3 times. This problem happens intermittently and very randomly.

Please advise.

Hi there, @TJ423.

It's good to know that your Adobe is updated and your checks are aligned when printing. 

Since the duplicate copies only happen with random checks, it could be something to do with Adobe. 

To sort this out, you may need to repair your Adobe. Here's how:

1. Close Acrobat/Reader and all open web browser windows.
2. Select the Start button at the bottom left of your screen.
3. Type Control Panel, then press Enter.
4. Select Programs and Features.
5. Click Acrobat or Adobe Reader, then Uninstall/Change.
6. In the Setup dialog box, select Next.
7. Select Repair, then Next.
8. Click Install.
9. When the process is complete, select Finish.
10. Restart your computer.
11. Log back into QuickBooks Online, then try to print.
