Calibrating cheques
Cheque stationery should always be printed to our specifications - samples are available if required. However, variations in printer types may mean that the boxes on the stationery do not always exactly line up with the printout.
In order to correct this problem you may need to calibrate the report to suit the model of printer that you are using.
Go into Tools - Cheque Writer - and click the Calibrate Button at the bottom of the screen. The first time that you select the 'Calibrate' button you will see a help screen displaying tips on how to move items on a report. If you wish this help screen to be shown the next time you come into the calibrate option, answer 'Yes'.
- Select the field that you wish to move by clicking on it from the list of available items on the left. To select more than one field, hold the CTRL key (on your keyboard) down and click on each desired item.
- Move the selected field(s) within the yellow box. Either click and drag it using the mouse, use the drag bars along the axes, or edit the vertical and horizontal scales. The dotted lines of the example represent the original position.
- Keep repeating the above until the remittances and cheques line up. Some lines, for example the details of the invoices paid, may only be moved through a horizontal plain. Remember that it is possible to reset the cheque numbers when you are ready to print using the pre-printed stationery.
*Remember to 'Save' your settings. The 'Reset' button will return the layout of the remittance and cheque to Farmplan's pre-set template.
