## SUMMARY

Some laser printers and inkjet printers do not support printing partial sheets of single-sheet style checks because the paper feed mechanisms on these printers are not designed to handle partial pages.

## MORE INFORMATION

Microsoft Money defines a partial sheet of checks as at least one of the checks from a single sheet having been removed prior to loading the sheet of checks into the printer.
Money prints partial sheets of checks in landscape mode. This orientation is similar to how you print an envelope.
Problems printing partial sheets of checks have been reported with the following printers:

- Apple Color LW 12/660
- Canon Bubble-Jet BJC 4550
- Canon Bubble-Jet BJC-610
- Epson Stylus 1520
- Epson Stylus 800
- Epson Stylus Color 400
- Epson Stylus Color Esc/P 2
- HP Color Laser Jet 5
- HP Laser Jet 5000
- HP Laser Jet 6P
- HP Laser Jet Indra
- HP Laser Jet 4MV
- IBM 4019 Laser Printer
- Lexmark ExecJet IIC 4076
- Tektronix Phaser 360

If your printer has difficulty feeding partial checks in landscape mode, you can order Laser Voucher checks that never have partial sheets. You can also print Laser Standard or Laser Wallet checks in batches of three.
Depending on the feed mechanism of the printer, the following method might work to feed partial check sheets:

1. Load the partial sheet into the printer as if it were a full sheet. Push the sheet all the way into the tray.
2. On the File menu, click Print Checks.
3. Verify the number of checks to print equals the number of checks remaining on your partial sheet. If the number of checks to print is incorrect, follow these steps:
   1. Click Selected Checks or Select Checks.
   2. Select up to the number of checks remaining on the partial sheet.
   3. Click OK.
4. Make sure that you type the correct check number for the first check.
5. When you are prompted for the number of checks on the first page, click Three. This forces Money to print in portrait orientation.

NOTE: Harland, the provider of checks for Money 99, offers a Laser Form Leader (order # FL-L ) that you can use to feed partial sheets of checks through a printer in portrait orientation.
You can print partial sheets using Laser Voucher checks with inkjet printers, or print Laser Standard or Laser Wallet checks in batches of three.
