Chrome: Open All Links and Print

[JMichaelTX]

@kevindax

I have this website open in Chrome. There is always a table there with several rows (there can be several hundred rows).
The text under "Tour No." (for example 20210430-0950) is a hyperlink to the detail view of each row.

I want an automation to open each row/link, print it and close it again and then continue with the next one until there are no more links.
(or: first open all links in new tabs and then print all tabs).

OK, I believe I have a solution for you.
This macro first extracts all links from the main web page with the table.

It then displays an Alert for you to confirm you want to print all of then Links:

A new Tab is opened, then each link is opened in it and prints it.
A standard Notification is sent as each link is printed.
The tab is closed when the macro is finished.

Below is just an example written in response to your request. You will need to use as an example and/or change to meet your workflow automation needs.

Please test with an main web page the contains only a few links in the table, something like 3-5 links.
If that works well, then you can use with larger tables.

Please let me know if you have any issues, or need to tweak the macro in any way.

Please let us know if it meets your needs.
