Cheque printing and millimetre calibration

What you will be able to do when you finish: set the Check Layout to Odoone Print Studio company-wide or on a single bank journal, point a journal at a cheque template, duplicate the Generic UAE cheque preset and calibrate a copy for each bank's leaf, say in one sentence why the bottom 16 mm of a leaf must stay empty, run a first-time calibration with one real leaf and one printer, and tell the difference between a field in the wrong place and a printer that lays the page down in the wrong place.

Who this is for. You issue cheques to suppliers and you print them on your bank's own pre-printed leaves. This is an Intermediate course. It assumes you already register payments by cheque and can find your bank journals; it does not assume you have ever opened a print template or held a ruler against a cheque.

How to follow along. Everything named here belongs to the module odoone_print_cheque — Odoone Print Studio Cheques — and the setting that starts it is a single field in your Accounting settings. The cheque lifecycle and its accounting, from post-dated cheques and bounces to the interim accounts, are course 5.1; this course is only about how the leaf is drawn. Have one real leaf from your bank in front of you, ideally a spoiled or cancelled one, plus the printer and the tray you will actually use — Lesson 4 cannot be done from a screen alone.
