Any option to print checks signed?
- 12-05-2008

there i any way to have my printer print a signature on my checks. Am
using Q2006D for a small non profit (synagogue), so I don't really
need all the bells and whistles of business software, but if it is not
an option in deluxe, is it an option in the business software?
TIA

Re: Any option to print checks signed?
It's never an issue with my personal checkbook where I only write the
occasional check, although over the years I have had checks clear that
were not signed.
For the synagogue I am often writing 4-6 checks at a time and although
I don't like writing, the issue is frankly more of forgetting to do it
rather than convenience. Meanwhile, I have pre-hand signed about 25
(vouncher style) from the box and will try to keep ahead of the game.
Suppose I could try scanning and printing my signature on the checks
though - one to a page, voucher style, though.

Re: Any option to print checks signed?
For several years I printed checks - with a signature - using word. I
used a mail merge system, with the primary document the check "template"
and a secondary document just to hold the data fields (payee, date,
amount, etc.)
The point is, I simply placed my name in the template as a signature
font. No one to whom I ever sent a check cared a bit that the
"signature" was a Microsoft font and not in fact my signature. Neither
did my bank.
It seems that signing checks in your true hand with ink only when you
are in fact issuing a check is NOT an effective internal control. So
your idea to sign them in bulk before you print them sounds fine to me.
