How to print a blank check?
If I know all the information about a vendor...EXCEPT the dollar amount of the check...is there a way to print a blank check to be filled in at a later time?

You can't.
You can use the pre-printed form, manually fill in the check and print the check later using an ordinary paper once you know all the info.

In addition to Biboy's comment, you can just take the check to the vendor, write it long hand and then enter all information later and print to a blank page.

One of the bookkeepers has printed checks before with no dollar amounts as recently as August. Today when she tried it would not work and asked for a valid amount. I can only assume this is a switch via upgrade.

Actually, yes, it is possible to print a blank check. Once you have entered the vendor information into the "Write Check" screen, you simply have to add an account on the lower portion of the screen (where you can enter splits).

JohnB91 is correct. I printed a blank check with a "zero" dollar amount and posted to a "suspense clearing" in the chart of accounts. I needed submit a sample "VOID" check to a customer that wants to remit to me via EFT.
After I printed the blank check, I actually edited the Write Check record and added a vendor name and amount and reused the same check number, so that I didn't have to save a VOID check record. I use CHAX software (Intuit Provider) that allows me to print on blank check stock and assign the 'next' number for each check batch. So it didn't matter that I used the same number that was used for my 'sample' void check.
