Re: [GNC] check printing

[John Layman via gnucash-user]

Just to pick a nit: it was referred to as the MICR line (Magnetic Ink Character 
Recognition).  Kinda sounded like MITRE.

Years ago (before electronic payments and deposits) I recall that it was 
possible to program GnuCash to print the MITRE line, as it used to be called, 
but you needed to use special magnetic ink so that check readers could read 
them reliably.  I imagine that it is still possible, but hardly necessary in 
the United States, anyway.  I think that you used to get the supplies from a 
company called Checksoft.  Back then banks weren't very cooperative because 
mistakes could wreak havoc in the clearing houses, and today they would be even 
less cooperative due to increased fraud concerns.
If you are really an alum of Southwest Bell, you are probably a U. S.
citizen and probably already using electronic deposits and payments, so I 
suspect that your interest may be mostly academic to show your grandchildren.

Re: [GNC] check printing

[fliegersonic.net]

There will always be non-digital methods of payment.  I use preprinted checks 
with GnuCash and my only issue is 
that I haven't figured out how to associate an address with a payee - I'm sure 
it's there, but

I will hate it if we can no longer use checks because transacting in cash is 
possible but inconvenient.

It will be just academic.
NZ (New Zealand, Aotearoa) ceased using them in 2021.
Australia promises to be cheque free by 2030.
My bank in Au will stop accepting cheques from this May.

Sometimes the USA is world leading, and sometimes not.

Re: [GNC] check printing

[Andrea]

   Thanks for responding. I print checks from more than I bank. I have
   MICR ink and a software that prints checks. That’s why I would like to
   find a software or software integration that will print routing and
   account numbers on checks. My banks are ok with it and I’ve never had a
   problem. Many workers want to a check after they have finished their
   work.

Re: [GNC] check printing

[Andrea]

   Actually, it’s not academic. There are still many workers in the US
   that want a check payment once the work is done. Right now I have a
   printer with MICR ink that does print routing and account numbers. I
   print from different bank accounts, so it is so easy to print checks on
   blank stock and have the different bank information printed in MICR. I
   would like to find a software that can do that or integrate with a
   check printing software.

Re: [GNC] check printing

[greg]

Hmmm, I don't do "electronic" payments or deposits.  But thenn, I've 
never been hacked ;)  MICR is still a thing because The Fed requires 
it.  Lots of MICR toner cartridges for sale online.  I have 2 MICR toner 
cartridges that came with a printer I bought via a local Craigslist.

I was still using release 2.something the last time I printed a check, so I
don't know if release 5.whatever can still do it or how to correctly
position the MICR line.

Re: [GNC] check printing

[John Ralls]

20 or so years ago I had a small company and used check-printing software to 
make the checks. I used generic pre-printed forms and the software included the 
MICR font and printed the routing id and account number in the appropriate 
place at the bottom. Back then the bank sent the completed checks back with the 
statements and every once in a while there'd be a strip of paper taped to the 
bottom of the check with the MICR line repeated. I guess that read failures 
were common enough that they had a procedure and probably a machine where a 
human would read and retype the MICR line to make and attach that strip when 
the regular read failed.

John Ralls

Re: [GNC] check printing

While things may have changed, many years ago when I worked in the bank,
the info at the bottom of the check was printed with a special ink (I think
they called it a magnetic ink) so that the routing and account numbers
could be scanned by a computer.  The rest of the check is regular printing.

Moreover, I suspect that the banks don't like people being able to print an
entire check, as a small tweat of an account number might pull the money

Re: [GNC] check printing

Years ago (before electronic payments and deposits) I recall that it was
possible to program GnuCash to print the MITRE line, as it used to be
called, but you needed to use special magnetic ink so that check readers
could read them reliably.  I imagine that it is still possible, but hardly
necessary in the United States, anyway.  I think that you used to get the
supplies from a company called Checksoft.  Back then banks weren't very
cooperative because mistakes could wreak havoc in the clearing houses, and
today they would be even less cooperative due to increased fraud concerns.
If you are really an alum of Southwest Bell, you are probably a U. S.

suspect that your interest may be mostly academic to show your
grandchildren.

Re: [GNC] Check printing

[R. Victor Klassen]

Got me. The only potential difference is the version and OS.  Don’t know 
whether anyone else has had a similar experience...

Re: [GNC] Check printing

[Bruce Irving]

Hi, Victor.
I use the same format as you.

I still can't understand why I create 8 transactions in the Checking
account, everything is the same except the number and payee.  Only one of
those checks would print.  For the rest of them, it goes through the
procedure on screen but when I click the final print, it does not go to the
printer!  I have to hand write those 7 checks.

Re: [GNC] Check printing

[R. Victor Klassen]

That would depend upon the number you’re doing in a given period. 

I have payroll output to QIF which when imported gives me the stub I need.  And 
it fits the window envelope just fine.  

I would hate to have to edit each and every cheque.

This is a matter where because of personal professional experience, I 
would strongly suggest that checks not be printed directly from gnucash. 
In other words, "print" to file which then could be processed by an 
editor before being sent to a printer.


Why?

There is potentially some "fine tuning" required in the exact 
formatting. I am thinking of the general case, say printing payroll 
checks which may be required to come attached to a "stub" << statement 
for the employee showing all deductions, etc. >> and if to be mailed, 
when folded, the address must show properly in the envelope window.


It is MUCH easier to deal with issues like "the new envelopes have the 
window in a slightly different position" by fixing in that in between 
editing program. Much easier than trying to make the change in the 
application writing the checks or madly dashing around trying to find a 
supplier of envelopes with the window in the old position. This is one 
of the things I used to have to deal with, an emergency call from the 
department doing the printing, folding, envelope stuffing that all of a 
sudden the address out of window.


Note that IF doing this (having that intermediate editor step) you can 
also relieve gnucash of all details like font size, font used, logos, 
etc. and instead do all the formatting/pretty printing with a full power 
editor.

Re: [GNC] Check printing

I have no experience with the three-part cheques, as the ones I use consume a 
full page (one third for the cheque, one third for each of the stubs).

When I do what you describe - except for the format - it works fine.   So 
someone else will have to chime in here.

I thought that link pointed specifically to chapter 6.15 which is the check
printing help.  Sorry, while the rest of the help is interesting, it is not

Re: [GNC] Check printing

[David Carlson]

I believe there was something more to the printing part of the process
because GnuCash has to be aware of whether there are one, two or three
blank checks in the first sheet.

Re: [GNC] Check printing

[Bruce Irving]

That is what I did, Victor.  (It is Ctrl-P on my platform.)  Only the first
one printed.  Each of the others, when I did Ctrl-P, went through the
procedure on the screen but it never went to the printer.

Re: [GNC] Check printing

[R. Victor Klassen]

What I would do under your circumstances is fill out all the details in the 
register for the first one,  duplicate transaction and edit the payee and 
number fields, and so on until I had them all in the register.  Then command-p 
on the Mac for each of them.  It might be control-p on your platform I don’t 
know.  Does that not work?

Re: [GNC] Check printing

[David Carlson]

A few days ago the MICR printer cartridge that I used to use popped up out
of some black hole so I may try printing checks again.   As I recall, tho
it used to be reasonably easy to print test checks on plain paper first,
then just be sure the desired transactions had the word print in the Num
field.  Oh, there was a trick to matching up check numbers which now slips
my mind.

I suppose that is the issue Bruce is wrestling with.

[GNC] Check printing

[Bruce Irving]

I'm getting to the point that I can rarely read my own handwriting.  So I
started playing with printing checks from GC bank reisters.
I am using 'Quicken/QuickBooks (tm) US-Letter 3-part' checks in GC Version
4.4 Flatpak under Peppermint 10 (based on Ubuntu 16?? or 18??)
It works - sometimes.  If I "print" a check, and the printer mis-behaves, I
can't reprint it!  The other day, I needed to write eight checks to
different parties, other than the payee, the checks were the same, I could
only print one of them!  I had to hand write the others.
Is there any way that I can get a check to reprint?  Or, to print multiple
nearly identical checks?

No, sorry, only reports can be printed from the command line, nor is it 
possible to make check printing available from the command line  as it's 
currently implemented as it prints the currently selected transaction from a 
register. What's more all of the printing functions are internal to 
dialog-print-check so there's no way for you to script them or even call them 
from another C program.

[GNC] Check printing via the command line?

[Tom Browder]

Is there any way to access the check printing capability of GnuCash via a
CLI?

I haven't tried it via the GUI yet. I just became interested this morning
when I had to write a check manually and, being of advanced age with
not-so-good hand-writing, thought about the GnuCash software I've been
using since I dumped Quicken many years ago.

Note I only use it on Windows at the moment (mainly for access for my
Windows-only wife), but can use it on my Debian at any time. I'm not
interested so much interfacing with my account data as in getting the
printing and check templating access at the moment.

I see only one GnuCash module on CPAN, but that doesn't do what I need,
although it does provide some help with developing Perl interfaces.

I mainly program in Raku now (see https://raku.org) and its NativeCall
access will help create the necessary interface if the API is reasonably
documented or if some kind soul can point me in the right direction. I will
of course publish anything I write that may be useful to others (see my
repos at https://github.com/tbrowder).

Best regards,

-Tom

Yes. See Appendix D of the Tutuorial and Concepts Guide for all the gory

Re: [GNC] Check printing issue: Windows 10/GnuCash 3.4

[Geert Janssens]

Hi Steven,

You have asked your question at the right list :)

The problem you experiencs is a known bug:

The good news is this bug has been fixed since the gnucash 3.4 release and 
will be in GnuCash 3.5 which is planned for the end or March.

If you can't wait that long, you could also download and install a recent 
nightly build for Windows which you can find here:
https://code.gnucash.org/builds/win32/maint/

The installers you find there are not formal releases, but have a few more 
bugs fixed than the last official release.

Regards,

Geert

[GNC] Check printing issue: Windows 10/GnuCash 3.4

[Steven Morrison]

I apologize if this is going to the wrong user list...this is the first 
time I've posted a question.


I opened an existing account file following a clean install of Windows 
10 and GnuCash 3.4, and found the program ran correctly and printed all 
reports, except for selecting File > Print Checks that either 
immediately crashed the program or opened the check printing window that 
then crashed the program if I "clicked" anywhere on the form.  In 
addition the Address portion of the form is grayed out.


In an effort to make sure I had a clean installation of GnuCash, I 
removed the program, edited all references out of the registry file, and 
reinstalled GnuCash, only to have the same problem occur.


The GnuCash trace function returns this message:

* 10:58:17  CRIT  free_check_format: assertion 
'data' failed


A search of Windows error messages makes me think there is a problem 
with access to one of the libraries, but I don't know how to locate what 
the problem is...or perhaps to effect a repair. Any chance someone could 
point me in the proper direction?
