Check settings affect real vendor payments. Confirm stock type, next check number, bank details, and alignment before printing production checks.

​

​
Configure Check Printing

Review:
  • Check stock type.
  • Bank name, bank address, routing number, and account last four.
  • Memo defaults and stub layout.
  • Authorized signature image and signer title.
  • Stock preset.
  • Global x and y offsets.
  • Per-field positions.
  • Check prefix and next number.
  • Printed elements such as MICR, border, labels, company info, bank info, and void warning.
Use pre-printed stock only when the physical stock already includes the required bank or MICR elements. Use blank stock only when Arcus should print those elements.

​
Alignment Workflow

  1. Load test paper or voided stock.
  2. Print an alignment test.
  3. Compare each field to the physical check.
  4. Adjust the global offset first.
  5. Adjust individual fields only when one field is still off.
  6. Print a second test.
  7. Update next check number before printing real checks.

​
Common Blocks

  • Check number is wrong: stop printing and correct the next number before using more stock.
  • Text prints too high or low: adjust the y offset.
  • Text prints too far left or right: adjust the x offset.
  • Bank data prints twice: confirm whether the stock is blank or pre-printed.
  • Signature is missing: check signature upload, visibility settings, and approval policy.
  • MICR should not print: review stock type and printed element toggles.
