What if my checks printed in reverse order?

printing checks

back to front

front to back

last page first

Some printers default to printing pages in reverse order (or printing the last page first).

If you print checks, this may cause you to waste and reprint checks when your printed check numbers don't match your check registry.

In most cases, you can resolve this issue by changing your printer Properties settings.

To do this task

1. Go to the Start menu.

2. Choose Settings.

3. Click Printers and Faxes. printing, printing, troubleshooting, . (For Windows 2000, click Printers.)

4. Select your printer.

5. Go to the File menu.

6. Click Properties.

7. Find the option that determines whether the first or last page prints first.

8. Make and save your change.

For more information, refer to the documentation that came with your printer.
