If any of your employees are set up with a manual payment method, you can download a print-ready PDF of their checks directly from Salaris. Each page contains the employee's check in the top third of the page, with their paystub below.
Before you begin
Check stock
Salaris uses the DLT159 check format — a check-on-top custom check stock format. You will need to purchase compatible check stock before printing. This format may also be listed on some websites as "Laser Top Check, Multi-Purpose 7.5 Voucher" — however, make sure the design matches exactly, as any variation will affect print alignment.
The following suppliers carry compatible check stock:
Your check stock should already have your company's routing number and banking information printed on it.
Envelopes
Checks are designed to fit in #9 Double Window Envelopes. The employee's residence address is printed on the check and will show through the window.
Payment method
Only employees whose payment method is set to Manual will be included in the download. Employees set up for direct deposit will not appear.
How to download checks
Checks can be downloaded from two places in Salaris — the Payroll screen for your current pay period, or Payroll history for past pay periods.
Navigate to Payroll or Payroll history
Locate the pay period you want to print checks for — the payroll must have a status of Paid or Partially paid
Click the ellipsis (⋯) next to the pay period
Select Download paper checks
A PDF will download containing one page per employee, with the check in the top third and their paystub below
Printing your checks
Once downloaded, open the PDF and print on your check stock. Make sure your printer alignment is correct before printing a full batch — a misaligned print will not sit correctly within the check stock fields.
