High-Security Features for Fraud Prevention
Security is a top priority when it comes to check printing. Payroll fraud is a significant concern for businesses, and we take every precaution to protect against unauthorized alterations.
That's why our payroll check paper includes a minimum of eight advanced security features to help prevent fraud and ensure the integrity of your payroll process.
-
Watermarks – Helps verify authenticity and deter counterfeiting by providing a unique, difficult-to-reproduce mark.
-
Microprinting – Uses tiny text that cannot be copied with standard printers or scanners, adding an extra layer of security.
-
Void Pantographs – Displays the word "VOID" when a check is photocopied, preventing unauthorized duplicates.
-
Security Threads – Embedded threads that provide visual and tactile verification, making checks more difficult to replicate.
-
Chemical Sensitivity – Detects attempts to alter check details using chemicals, preventing common fraud tactics.
-
Heat-Sensitive Ink – Ink that changes color when exposed to heat, allowing for quick and easy verification.
-
Holograms – A tamper-proof security feature that adds a visual safeguard against duplication or alteration.
-
Artificial Watermarks – Clearly visible when held against light, ensuring that each check is legitimate.
These features work together to provide comprehensive fraud protection, giving you peace of mind that your checks are secure.

More About Blank Payroll Checks
StockChecks is your source for blank payroll checks and payroll check stock you print in-house, on demand. With 123 payroll check options across top, middle, and bottom positions and eleven colors, you can match the exact blank payroll check paper your payroll software and bank require — and print the bank line, employee, and amount yourself for full control over every payroll run.
Blank Payroll Checks for Every Payroll System
Whether you run payroll weekly, biweekly, or twice a month, blank payroll checks let you print exactly when you need to, in the quantity you need. Our payroll checks and payroll check paper feed cleanly through laser printers and hold toner sharply, so each blank payroll check looks professional and scans reliably at the bank. Printing blank payroll checks in-house means no waiting on a pre-printed order and no overprinting checks you will not use.
Payroll Check Paper & Payroll Check Stock
Our payroll check paper is true blank check stock — not plain paper — with built-in security. Order payroll check stock and blank payroll check paper in the color and position your software prints, and keep a single stock on hand for multiple accounts. The 24# stock is Check 21-ready and meets ABA/ANSI standards; for the routing line you need a MICR add-on such as PrintBoss or ezCheckPrinting to draw it and a MICR toner cartridge to print it magnetically. For payroll business checks already imprinted with your details, see our printed business checks.
Customers ask us often whether payroll check paper and payroll check stock are two different products. In practice the terms are interchangeable, and we use both here. What matters when you compare suppliers is what's in the sheet: the security features, the weight, and whether the perforations match the layout your software prints.
Because our payroll check paper is blank, one order covers every account, entity, and pay schedule you manage, and it stays useful when your headcount or your bank changes. You aren't tying a carton to one account the way a pre-printed order does.
Top, Middle & Bottom Position Payroll Checks
Payroll software lays out the check in a fixed spot, so position matters. We stock top, middle, and bottom formats, including middle position blank payroll checks, so your printed check lines up with the stubs and MICR line. Match the position to where your software prints the check: top (check on top, stubs below), middle (check between two stubs), or bottom (check at the bottom, stubs above).
All three positions use the same payroll check paper we stock, so what you're choosing is where the check sits, not how well it's protected. Our top position blank check paper puts the check above the stubs, our middle-position payroll checks sit between them, and our bottom-position payroll check stock prints the check last.
If you're not certain which format your payroll software uses, print one pay run to plain paper and hold it against a sample sheet. The check body will line up with one of the three positions, and that's the payroll check paper to order. Send us a sample page and our team can confirm which position it matches.
Software Compatibility & Security
Our blank payroll checks are compatible with ADP, QuickBooks, Intuit, Quicken, and Paychex. Running ADP? See our ADP payroll checks; using Intuit or Quicken, see Intuit payroll checks and computer checks for Quicken. Even blank payroll checks include a void pantograph, scallop-void background, and optional hologram; for the highest protection, see our high security check paper. Choose from blue, green, burgundy, red, reflex blue, tan, gray, purple, teal, and yellow. Most orders ship free the same day when placed before 12 PM ET, Monday through Friday.
Printing Blank Payroll Checks from Your Payroll Platform
Each platform handles check printing a little differently, but all of the major ones print onto the blank payroll check paper in this collection.
-
ADP – ADP's print-back and in-house check options output standard voucher layouts; our ADP-compatible stock matches them sheet for sheet.
-
QuickBooks – QuickBooks Desktop and Online print voucher paychecks with the check on top; see our QuickBooks checks for formats matched to Intuit's templates.
-
Gusto – Gusto's self-print option generates a PDF paycheck with stub detail that aligns with standard voucher sheets — print it like any other document.
-
Paychex – Paychex Flex supports employer-printed paychecks on standard blank stock; match the position to your check layout setting.
-
Sage – Sage 50 and Sage 100 print paychecks in classic voucher formats, and our sheets align without any template edits.
-
Patriot – Patriot Software's print-your-own paycheck feature works with standard blank stock in the position shown in its print preview.
All six platforms print onto the same blank payroll check paper, so switching providers later does not strand your supply. Whichever system cuts your paychecks, print one sample page on plain paper first, confirm the layout position, and order that format. If your platform prints the check at the foot of the page, our bottom position blank check stock is the match.
Payroll Check Paper Specifications
Every sheet in this collection is 8.5" x 11", 24 lb MICR bond — heavier than standard copy paper, so paychecks feel substantial and resist tearing in envelopes and wallets. The stock is Check 21 compliant and meets ABA/ANSI standards for image-based clearing, with a clean MICR band that reads reliably once a MICR add-on such as PrintBoss or ezCheckPrinting draws the characters and MICR toner prints them magnetically. Perforations are die-cut for a smooth edge in top, middle, and bottom positions, and each format leaves room for full earnings and deductions detail on the stubs. Because it is blank payroll check paper rather than preprinted stock, one supply covers every bank account, entity, and pay schedule you manage. Store the blank payroll check paper flat in its carton and the final sheet will feed as cleanly as the first.
Payroll Checks for Every Pay Run
We know pay schedules rarely stay tidy. A company may run hourly staff weekly, salaried staff biweekly, and a small management group twice a month, then issue an off-cycle payroll check for a final paycheck, a correction, or a bonus. Blank payroll checks handle all of it from one supply, because nothing on the sheet commits them to a particular date, employee, or amount until you print.
A final payroll check due the same day, a missed timesheet, or a reimbursement that has to clear before the weekend all mean printing a small number of payroll checks on short notice. With blank payroll checks already on hand, printing a single payroll check takes minutes and doesn't depend on a reorder arriving first.
Multi-entity businesses gain the most here. Because the bank line prints at the moment of issue, a single carton of payroll checks can serve two subsidiaries, three bank accounts, and a separate account for contractor payments. Your payroll team selects the account in the software, prints, and files the stub; the blank payroll check paper itself never has to be sorted or labeled by entity.
When a bank relationship changes, only the software record changes, and the payroll checks in the cabinet stay usable. That's the real difference from pre-printed: a new account costs your payroll team a template edit, not a carton of dead stock.
Frequently Asked Questions
What are blank payroll checks?
Blank payroll checks are check stock you print on demand rather than ordering pre-printed: your payroll software adds the employee and the amount, while a MICR add-on such as PrintBoss or ezCheckPrinting draws the bank line for a MICR toner cartridge to print.
Which payroll check position do I need - top, middle, or bottom?
Match the position to where your payroll software prints the check. We stock top, middle, and bottom positions, including middle position blank payroll checks.
Are blank payroll checks compatible with ADP and QuickBooks?
Yes. Our blank payroll checks work with ADP, QuickBooks, Intuit, Quicken, and Paychex. We also offer ADP-, Intuit-, and Quicken-specific stock.
Can I print payroll checks on a laser printer?
Yes. Our payroll check stock is laser-compatible and feeds like ordinary paper, printing crisp, secure checks. For the routing line, add a MICR add-on such as PrintBoss or ezCheckPrinting to draw the characters and a MICR toner cartridge to print them magnetically.
How many payroll checks should I keep in stock?
Work backward from a typical pay run. Count the payroll checks you print in one cycle, multiply by the number of cycles you want covered, and add a margin for off-cycle payroll checks, alignment tests, and voided sheets. Most payroll teams find that four to eight weeks of stock is comfortable. Reorder once the remaining payroll check stock drops to about one full pay run, so a busy week never coincides with an empty cabinet. If you print for several entities or bank accounts from the same stock, count all of them together.
