I'm using Classic, version R64.25. Sometimes I print 2 or 3 checks on 1 page. I'll put information in the Memo field for all the checks. However, often (intermittently) the Memo field on the last check on the page doesn't appear when I print the checks. I then have to write in the blank Memo field with a pen.

    Something is amiss with your check alignment settings. The printed date is too high and the printed memo is too low. I think the bottom memo fell below the check printing area. I suggest you go through your settings for printing checks and make sure they're correct for the checks you use.

    Also, where did you get these checks? Are they certified as being "Quicken/Quickbooks" compatible?

    Incompatible checks could also be the reason for your issue.

    Are you selecting the correct number of Standard Checks available on the first sheet? 3, 2 or 1 check left on the sheet?

    Also be sure to choose and test the proper selections for how to print a partial page (1 or 2 checks left on sheet) 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.
