Check Printer Setup

Designated Check Printer Setup Instructions

The Printer that you have received is for the sole purpose of printing checks from the Fairwater System. You are being supplied with a special Toner Cartridge for this purpose. The printer is not intended, and should not be used, for any other Printing needs.

You should keep Blank Check stock in the Printer. It does not require you to secure the check stock like you did in the past.
