So many of these posts could easily have been mine! I've had problems off and on with printing checks. Seems to go fine, and all of a sudden they're off track! I download the latest version of reader, I vent on support, and to no avail! Then, miraculously, the checks will start printing correctly again!

The printing alignment was off again about 2 weeks ago, and I've been trying everything suggested to fix it. I am ready to dump Quickbooks online and have been looking for another accounting software program to use. Today I needed to print some Avery labels. When printed, they didn't line up like they always do. Avery suggested I check the printer settiings.  I checked my printer settings and found someone had changed the scaling to "Custom" 88%. I changed it to 100%, and my labels printed perfectly. I decided to see if that fixed my check alignment printing problems, so went to Quickbooks and tried a test check. Printing is perfect again!

From now on, when the checks print incorrectly, I'm checking the printer settings first! And I've alerted all those using the computer that if they need to change the scaling for PDF printing, CHANGE IT BACK TO 100%!!!!!

I would suggest that anyone having print alignment problems check the printer scaling setting. I don't know if "Default" would work, but "Custom" 100% sure did it for me!
