Check printing

Hello, 

 

Has anyone else had a problem with printing checks? 

 

Multiple times I have printed a check and the next week it prints again, like the first check never existed.

 

I am so fed up with this issue.  It is a huge time sucker and frustrating.  Not to mention wasting expensive check stock.

 

I called QB, the first guy hung up on me.  The second person told me I had to have a support agreement for this problem, even though it is obviously a QB issue.  She sent me some links, but none of them were even the slightest bit helpful.  They had nothing to do with this issue.

Apparently I have not stated the issue correctly.

 

I don't have a problem with printing the checks.   The problem is that the checks I have already printed are printed again.   They are not on the unpaid list that I print.  They just pop into the check run.  There isn't an outstanding payable, somehow the system prints a second check for an invoice.that has already been paid in full.

Thank you for getting back to the thread and giving an update regarding your concern, @TMI1230

 

It may be a duplicate check printing issue in your QuickBooks desktop software. I'd like to request that you perform some of the troubleshooting steps that could help address this concern:

 

  1. Check your check register: Go to the check register for the bank account used to pay the invoice and look for any duplicate checks that may have been recorded. If you find a duplicate check, delete it.
  2. Check your printer settings: Check to see if you have accidentally selected the option to reprint checks that have already been printed.
  3. Check your print checks settings: Check to see if you have accidentally input 2 in the number of copies section.

 

If the issue persists, it may be a technical issue that requires assistance from our Customer Care Team. Contact them for further guidance. They also have tools like screen sharing so they'll be able to guide you through the process.
