The format of the printed checks is unique to each bank account. If you have other bank accounts, you can set a different check layout for each of them.

Some check formats may not include an address field, causing the address to be omitted when printing checks. If the address is missing, the check could be printed in an incorrect format.

To resolve this, ensure the correct address is added to the card,as the check pulls the address from this information.Then, follow the necessary steps to adjust the check printing settings and select the correct layout.
