I want to print my own checks on blank stock from Quicken and QuickBooks. To do so, I need a virtual driver that intercepts the print output from Quicken formats the fields properly, and adds the MICR text at the bottom of the check. This is for Windows 7 or OS X.

I have looked at the following:

CHAX Works, but crashes a LOT. Not giving me confidence. It is also expensive.

VersaCheck Looks promising but looks like it suffers severe feature bloat. I just want to print check and deposit slips, thank you.

Ganson Is only for high volume really. It is also designed for batch use vs I just want to print to a virtual printer. More than $2500.

GnuMICR is more of a science project. Not yet ready to use and has not been updated for years.

There are a lot of solutions on the web, so please don't just google for me. I am looking for specific experience with good solid check printing solution.

Thanks!!!
