Laser checks on top are pre-printed voucher checks formatted with the check at the top of an 8.5 by 11 inch sheet and two perforated stubs below it. Your accounting software prints the payee name, amount, date, and check number onto the pre-printed check at run time. Every check ships with your company name, bank name, routing number, account number, and logo already on the paper. Compatible with QuickBooks, Xero, Sage, Quicken, and over 500 accounting platforms. Manufactured in Monroe, NY since 1997 to ABA standards, with rush and next-day delivery options available.
What Are Laser Checks on Top and How Do They Work?
The check-on-top format is the default layout used by most accounting software platforms in the United States, including QuickBooks Desktop and QuickBooks Online. When you run a check print job, your software maps the variable transaction fields onto the pre-printed sheet. The check prints at the top of the page. Two perforated stubs below it record the payment detail. One stub goes to the payee. The other stays in your AP or payroll files.
The MICR line at the bottom of the check, which carries your routing and account number for bank scanning, is pre-printed on every sheet to ABA standards. Your office printer handles only the fields your accounting software generates at print time. Standard laser or inkjet toner works for most US banks. No MICR toner required for most setups.
QuickBooks Laser Checks: Secure, Compatible, and Precisely Aligned
QuickBooks users choosing laser checks on top do not need to configure a custom template. The check-on-top layout matches the QuickBooks default check printing template exactly. Load the paper, run the check print job, and every field lands in the right position on the first sheet.
Alignment accuracy is the most common concern when switching check suppliers. Misaligned checks mean reprints and wasted paper. Every Checkomatic laser check on top is manufactured to the exact field positions QuickBooks and other platforms expect. If you switch from another supplier and experience any alignment issue, contact us and we will resolve it before your next print run.
