I can’t really say how Splasm is going to design the check printing feature, 
but I seriously doubt they would implement it in such a way as to allow users 
to completely print a check on a blank sheet of paper.  This is because the 
routing, account and whatever that third number is called is printed via 
magnetic ink for automation.  I suppose one could purchase a printer that would 
include magnetic ink, but I presume that would be a prohibitively expensive 
purchase; one that most of us could not afford.

The usual process for printing checks via computer software requires the 
purchase of checks referred to as “Quick Books-like” stock.  These are letter 
sized sheets incorporating a blank check at the top with perforations to permit 
ready detachment from the bottom two thirds of the “check sheet.”

If it were up to me, I might propose a check printing design that would include 
an option to use “standard checks” to be printed on a photo printer or some 
such printer that could appropriately handle stock as small as a standard check.
