NOTE: Because there are several versions of Windows, the following steps
may be different on your computer. If they are, please consult your product
documentation to complete these steps.
 
To handle the special printing options you may want to use for printing
checks, install an additional copy of the printer driver you normally
use but do not make it the default. Then, select the additional printer
as the printer for checks. To install a new printer, follow these steps:
 
1. Click the Start button, point to Settings, and then click Printers.
 
2. Double-click Add Printer.
 
3. The Add Printer Wizard starts. Follow the instructions on the screen to
   install your printer.
 
4. When the Add Printer Wizard asks for a name for the printer, use
   a name specific to Money check printing. For example, use:
 
      HP 4 for Printing Money checks
 
5. After the Add Printer Wizard is finished, use the right mouse button
   to click the new printer, click Properties, and modify its
   properties as appropriate. For example, go to the Paper tab and
   change the paper source to Manual.
 
6. Change the printer Money uses to print checks:
 
    a. On the File menu, point to Print Setup, and then click
       Check Setup.
 
    b. In the Printer list, click the printer you created in the steps
       above.
 
    c. Choose the correct Check Type and Source.
