Is there a setting or a way to print a standard 2 5/8 x 6" check on an HP8600 printer?

Perhaps specifying an envelope ?

I do not have Quicken or QuickBooks or any other software that might have this setting.

 

I want to do this because my handwriting is not nearly as good as it used to be and sometimes the written amounts take up so much space, it's hard to get the words neatly in place.

Thanks for any suggestions or help

Thanks for the reply.

What do users of Quicken or QuickBooks do ?

You are welcome.

 

No idea what Quicken folks do - I've never printed a check.

I write just a few checks per year and manage with the old-fashioned approach.  Smiling.
