Quickbooks® Check on Top

QuickBooks check on top is the pre-printed voucher check format used by QuickBooks Desktop and QuickBooks Online for accounts payable and payroll printing. The check prints at the top of an 8.5 by 11 inch sheet. Two perforated stubs sit below it for your AP and payroll records. Your company name, bank name, routing number, account number, and logo are pre-printed on the paper before it ships. Checkomatic has manufactured these from Monroe, NY since 1997, with 112 reviews from verified customers and bulk pricing that saves up to 73% compared to bank check pricing on equivalent quantities.

What Is a QuickBooks Check on Top and How Does It Work?

QuickBooks users who print checks through the software need check paper that matches the QuickBooks print template. The check-on-top format is the default template built into QuickBooks for AP check printing and payroll. When you select Print Checks in QuickBooks, the software maps the payee name, dollar amount, date, and check number to the corresponding fields on the pre-printed sheet. Both stubs below the check get populated with the same transaction data for record keeping.

No template configuration is needed. QuickBooks recognizes the check-on-top layout as its default. Load the paper, select your checks in the print queue, and run the job. The first check off the printer lands correctly without any alignment adjustment in the software settings.

The MICR line at the bottom of each check, which carries your routing and account number for bank scanning, is pre-printed to ABA standards. Your office printer handles only the fields QuickBooks generates at print time. Standard laser or inkjet toner is all you need for most US banks. No MICR toner cartridge required.

Checks for QuickBooks Online and QuickBooks Desktop

Both versions of QuickBooks use the same check-on-top print template. Our check stock is compatible with QuickBooks Desktop (all versions including Pro, Premier, and Enterprise) and QuickBooks Online. The layout alignment is identical across both platforms.

For QuickBooks users who prefer a wallet-sized check format, our QuickBooks wallet checks print three personal-sized checks per page. For a three-per-page format with no stubs, our QuickBooks checks 3-on-a-page are the lower cost-per-check option for high-volume AP runs. For a complete overview of all QuickBooks check formats, see the full QuickBooks compatible checks catalog.

Save Up to 73% Compared to Bank Check Pricing

Banks mark up check pricing significantly because they outsource the printing. Checkomatic manufactures in-house and ships direct. The difference at scale is substantial. At 1,000 checks the savings reach 73% off standard bank pricing for equivalent check stock. At 500 checks the savings are 61%. Even at 50 checks as a starting order, the per-check cost is lower than ordering through a bank-affiliated supplier.

One verified customer, a QuickBooks user and treasurer for a nonprofit chapter, noted that 500 Checkomatic checks cost less than half of what the bank charged for 200. That pricing difference is consistent across every quantity tier on this page.

Q: How do I customize a check in QuickBooks?

A: The option to have custom business checks through QuickBooks can be availed using the succeeding steps. The first step includes the selection of the preferences tab under the edit option. The next step involves the selection of the checking tab followed by the Company Preferences tab. Then comes the selection of the print account names on the voucher. The display has the first 16 lines of the account name for the paychecks or business checks for Quickbooks that are not meant for inventory purchases.

Q: How do I renumber checks in QuickBooks?

A: If there is a need to renumber the computer checks from Quickbooks a very easy series of steps can be followed. The editing involves the selection of Use Register under Banking from the top menu of QuickBooks. Next, you need to select the location account of the business check or paycheck. As you open the check, you have an option to edit the check number listed in the Check Number field. Save the changes once you are done.

Q: Can I print my own checks on regular paper?

A: This is not possible. You can opt for Checkomatic’s check-on-top QuickBooks checks to enjoy cheap check printing. The paper used for such business check printing enables the printing of the characters at the bottom of the check. It needs magnetic ink for printing the checks which your regular paper can not allow. The characters at the bottom of the checks or the account number and routing number have to have the presence of MICR. It stands for Magnetic ink character recognition that is used widely for processing and identification of checks.
