My Cannon ImageClass MF632Cdw does not print Quicken checks properly.
First it is just about impossible to print a single check. I use standard checks, three to a sheet. I have done it but can't re-create it.
Second, in the past, the sheet of three have printed from the drawer, but now the date and the digital amount are not printing. The printer beeps if I put in two checks and asks me to cancel the job even though the check is sort of printed. The payee and the written amount are printed.
Cannon is useless. They refer me to "Just Ask." Just Ask takes a fee, though they will refund it if you are not satisfied. I have talked to them maybe five times and mostly gotten my money back. But it takes several hours.

Printing checks, ordering checks from Intuit
Click File / Printer Setup / For printing checks to select the correct Check Style.
For 3-per-page personal size checks choose "Wallet Checks (Check 21 ...)", not "Wallet Checks" (unless you still use some very old stock from many years ago)
For 3-per-page business size checks choose "Standard Checks", not "Voucher Checks".
For 1-per-page business size checks with 2 stubs choose "Voucher Checks".
Canadian users need to select between 2 layout styles, e.g., old style "Voucher" vs. new style "Voucher - Image ready".
You may have to scroll the list of check styles up or down to see all available styles.Also be sure to choose and test the proper selections for how to print a partial page in your printer … the settings to choose (e.g., horizontal vs. vertical feed) may depend on the make and model of printer that you use.
Quicken US version only: For a review of Quicken - compatible check styles and perhaps to order new supplies, please see https://intuitmarket.intuit.com/checks (the website talks about checks for use with QuickBooks but the same style checks also work with Quicken)

Workaround:
If you can't resolve the size error issue (or if it can't be bypassed by pressing the Start button on your printer), you can use form leaders to feed your printer with a proper 8.5x11 sheet while printing a partial 1- or 2-checks page in normal portrait orientation.
See https://intuitmarket.intuit.com/fsg/businesschecks/formleaders.aspx for an example of form leaders. Check your local office supply store, search on the Internet or order from Intuit.
My 2cents' worth:
I use Voucher checks (1 business size check + 2 stubs on an 8.5x11 sheet). My printers do not have a manual feed tray or 2nd paper tray that can easily be reconfigured to feed partial pages (1 or 2 checks left from a 3-checks-per-page sheet), so for my occasional check printing needs voucher checks are easiest to use.
When considering your own check stock to use, consider how easy or difficult it is to feed odd-size partial pages into your printer when making a purchase decision for a new supply of checks.
