Eli5: how do blank printer checks work ? Are they premade blank checks, or can you printer them out ready to use for your business?

This answer may be old. 25 years ago I used to do accounting software implementations. Part of that was check printing. The company would buy pre-made checks from a printing company. That paper had a watermark bank and routing number etc. I would setup the print job that would match the blank spaces and at the time they used MICRE (might have spelling wrong) basically magnetic ink that would fill in the routing and account numbers and the check serial number.
As far as I know they purchased the blanks from printing companies, actually those small mom and pop shops. I liked that. Because I was paid about $25/hour under the table to carefully make the print job match this personally designed check. Easy money for me.
