Business Checks

What are the systems requirements for quickbooks

We have obtained the information for QuickBooks users. What kind of business checks does QuickBooks use? QuickBooks uses mostly checks on top, or full page of checks (3 checks to a page). Choice Checks has 28 colors to select from and great prices. I ordered from them, and was very impressed with their service and selection. I’ve been asked, can you use checks in middle with Quickbooks. NO, you can’t if you need checks in the middle, I would recommend peachtree.
