After printing a page of checks (no matter how many) my printer ask for another sheet the same size

It appears this may be a way to make copies of each check printed. Is this possible?

Try resetting your printer definitions in Quicken and then redefine the printer:

For Quicken for Windows versions 2009 and older:

Close Quicken

Use Windows File Explorer to locate and rename the file
C:\Users\_username_\AppData\Roaming\Intuit\Quicken\Config\WPR.DAT to WPR.OLD

Now set up your printer again, as described below. The WPR.DAT file will be recreated next time you start Quicken.

For Quicken for Windows 2010 and newer:

Click File / File Operations / Validate and Repair. Click "Reset Quicken Printer Settings", then click OK.

Now set up your printer (see below)

Printer Setup (all versions):

Close and restart Quicken (might not be necessary, but it can't hurt)
In Quicken click File / Printer Setup / For Printing and visit all selections as needed
(a) for Reports,
(b) for Checks,
(c) for Invoices [Quicken H&B, RPM users only]
and define your printer.

If you're printing checks, do not forget 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 choose between 2 layout styles, e.g., old style "Voucher" vs. new style "Voucher - Image ready".

(Optional) If you are printing a logo (image) on your checks, click the Logo button and make sure that your logo image file is still where Quicken expects it to be.
Also choose the proper features for printing partial pages when using 3-per-page stock.
Users of continuous forms on dot matrix printers: Be sure to select "Continuous Forms" instead of "Page-oriented".

Make sure that at least one of your printers is marked as Windows Default Printer ... doesn't have to be the one you want to use with Quicken, but you need at least one marked Default Printer

In some of the newer versions of Windows 10 you may also need to do this:
Go into Windows Settings or Control Panel, Printers & Scanners.
Uncheck "Let Windows manage my default printer".

I would add a step to @UKR's instructions. Before resetting the printer settings, record those settings. It's easy to forget the horizontal & vertical alignment numbers, font size, etc.

I once made the mistake of resetting without recording, and had to trial-and-error my way back to the correct set of 6 alignment numbers, leaving a trail of ugly (but usable) checks.

Only if you are printing Voucher checks, there's an option to print "Additional Copies" for multi-part voucher checks (original plus 1 or more extra copies)

If you don't want extra copies, this should be set to 0(zero).

What style checks are you using?
For Standard or Wallet checks, are you printing a full sheet of 3 checks per page or are you printing a short page with 1 or 2 checks left on the sheet?

I am using standard checks, so the Additional field is set to zero and grayed out. It happens no matter whether I am printing a full or partial sheet.

If you give it a sheet of blank paper, does it actually print duplicate checks? Or what?
