Thanks for the link; that's a fairly decent price on a printer. Our color printer is an HP and I like it a lot. I actually have a little black and white laser similar to that in storage, but the checks were all misaligned coming out of that  printer, so after fooling with it for a while, I gave up on that and am trying to use this Canon instead. Prints checks well, but there is the sharing issue which has been under discussion. :) So, I'd like to see if I can make a tray-feeder work; just seems easier to align the checks correctly.

Can't believe you cooked that up so quickly AND made a video! :Thmbsup: Thanks a bunch and will get back to you after I try it out!

Thanks, Stoic Joker.  :) Totally agree that the  simple solution you suggested would be more  ideal. Did some experimenting with the printer; it prints great but configuration options are a bit lacking. If I send a job to the main paper tray, and a page is is in the manual feeder, it will print the first page of that job from the manual feeder, even if I've set the manual feeder size/type and the paper tray size/type to different sizes. It's such a good multi-function otherwise we hate to upgrade at this time. I suppose that's just the difference between the small office printer and the expensive printers you find in larger corporate settings.
