How can i print multiple sheets at the same time

Question

im trying to print multiple sheets out of a particular folder in numbers.  Cant i just select all and print?  When I try to the message that appears is that there is an error printing

Answer 1

If I guess correctly, you are trying to print thru a printer icon installed on the Desktop.
At last on my machine, iWork applications aren't compatible with this scheme.
Here is a script which may be useful.
--{code}
--[SCRIPT print_iWork]
Enregistrer le script en tant qu'application : print_iWork.app
sur le bureau
Glisser déposer des icônes de documents iWork sur celle du script pour imprimer ceux-ci.
--=====
Save the script as an Application : print_iWork.app
Drag & Drop icons of iWork documents on the script's icon to print them.

==== Uses GUIscripting ====
This handler may be used to 'type' text, invisible characters if the third parameter is an empty string.
It may be used to 'type' keyboard raccourcis if the third parameter describe the required modifier keys.
I changed its name « shortcut » to « raccourci » to get rid of a name conflict in Smile.
