Business laser checks for QuickBooks from Checkomatic are pre-printed voucher checks in the check-on-top format, the default layout for QuickBooks Desktop and QuickBooks Online. The check sits at the top of the sheet with two perforated stubs below. Your company name, bank name, routing number, and account number are pre-printed before it ships. QuickBooks fills in the payee, amount, date, and check number at print time. MICR line pre-printed in magnetic ink. No MICR toner required. Free black and white logo printing on every order. Starting from $19.79 with 51 five-star reviews.
Business Checks for QuickBooks: Why the On-Top Format Is the Default
QuickBooks Desktop and QuickBooks Online both default to the check-on-top layout when you run a check printing batch. The check occupies the top third of an 8.5" x 11" sheet. Two detachable voucher stubs run below it. One stub goes to the payee as a payment remittance record. The other stays in your files as your accounts payable or payroll documentation.
That two-stub system is what makes the check-on-top format the standard for QuickBooks AP and payroll. Every payment produces a physical paper record without any extra step. The stub detail, invoice numbers, pay period, and memo data all print from QuickBooks automatically when the check prints. Nothing needs to be filled in separately.
If you've ordered checks before and they came out misaligned, the most common cause is a format mismatch. QuickBooks defaults to check-on-top. If your previous stock was in-middle or on-bottom, the fields were printing to the wrong section of the page. This format resolves that on the first print run without any software adjustment.
Checks for QuickBooks Printing: What You Need Before Your First Run
Three things need to be correct before your first QuickBooks check print run. First, this stock loaded in your printer tray. Second, your page size set to Letter (8.5" x 11"), not A4, in both QuickBooks print settings and your printer properties. Third, page scaling set to none (100%) so QuickBooks doesn't resize the output zone.
The MICR line at the bottom of the check, the magnetic strip carrying your routing and account numbers, is already on the paper in magnetic ink before the stock ships. Your office laser or inkjet printer handles only the variable output QuickBooks generates at print time: payee name, dollar amount, date, check number, and memo. No MICR toner needed. Standard toner handles everything your printer is responsible for.
QuickBooks also has a built-in alignment tool under the check printing settings. If the first test print is off by a fraction, that tool adjusts in small increments without requiring a new stack of checks. Most alignment issues resolve with one or two test sheets on plain paper before committing the actual check stock.
