Batch Print Report Page
I am working at a school district and have built a large and complicated Power Bi report with many pages of academic performance data. One of the pages, however, was designed to show information for a single student. Everything about that student - testing scores, grades, attendance, the works. Think "Baseball Card". My superiors use this report to get a quick view of a student's performance. I built it as a drill-through destination. They find the student in another page, and drill-through to this one. I also designed the page to be standard letter size, for easy PDF creation/printing.
It all works fine, but I have been asked to print this "baseball card" for every student that they want to hand out or put in their portfolio. Using the report to drill-through all 3,000 students and printing one at a time is obviously not an option.
Any ideas are greatly appreciated!
There is a way to do this via the API or via Power Automate but that is painfully slow and unreliable.
Sounds like you want to consider creating a new paginated report just for this purpose. It can still use the same dataset.

Hi mmaine ,
You cannot print all the report pages at once. Report pages can only be printed one page at a time.
Print from the Power BI service - Power BI | Microsoft Docs
There seems to be no way to directly print out the 3000 drilled results.
