Printing in VB6

Hi, I'm fairly new to the VB6 world, but am currently helping out in a VB project for a client. My part deals with the printing of the checks. I'm not sure how to do it.

The client uses a dot matrix printer to print checks out to their clients (This is a worker's comp company that I'm writing this program for). What I don't know, is how to create a layout that will match up with the physical checks to be printed on. And how do I extract the data from my SQL 7 database to put it on the check. If someone knows a process on how to do what I just mentioned it sure would be a great help to me.

Thanks

Here is an example I have posted previously on how to connect to a SQL server DB and retrieve data:

How do I create a virtual check so I can then print it to literal checks on the dot matrix? How do create a print option in my application?
