Let me walk you through this:

4. How to fix checks that are not printing correctly
Have you been experiencing printing issues in QuickBooks Desktop lately? If so, let’s take a look at a few troubleshooting steps that can help resolve these for you!
You’ll first want to start by locating the QBPrint.qbp. This will be located in one of the following folders:
- Windows 10, 8.1, and 8: C:\ProgramData\Intuit\QuickBooks 20xx
(20xx represents the version of your QuickBooks.)
- Server 2008 and Server 2012: C:\Program Data\Intuit\QuickBooks YEAR and C:\Users\**remote user**\AppData\Roaming\Intuit\ YEAR VERSION\TSPrinterSettings
Now that you’ve located the file, you can now rename it. Here are the steps to do so:
1. Right-click the QBprint.qbp file for your QuickBooks version and select Rename.
2. Add the word "old" to the file name (i.e. QBPrint.qbp.old)
3. Open QuickBooks once again.
4. Go to the File menu and select Printer Setup.
5. Select any transaction in the Form Name list and select OK. This will create a new QBprint.qbp file.
Note: You don't have to do this for every transaction.
6. Go back to the Check and print it to test if it's working correctly.
That should do it! If the issue persists, you can also use the Print & PDF Repair Tool from the QUickBooks Tool Hub, which helps fix most of the common issues with printing.
5. How to Receive and Record a Payment Without an Invoice
Good news is that you can create an invoice if the purchase is set to be paid later. You’ll want to use an invoice so that you can record the sales transaction even if no or partial payment was made.
If you’re wanting to record the transaction at the exact time that you get paid, another option is to just use the sales receipt to record when the customer pays you on the spot for a product or service.
Let’s go over the steps on how to receive payment from the invoices you recorded:
1. Click the + New button and select Receive Payment.
2. Select the customer and click the invoice to pay.
3. Under the amount, you can enter a partial amount or full amount.
4. Click Save and close.
That’s all!
