It does not seem possible to automatically open and print multiple Word documents in the Word Desktop App directly from a browser due to security restrictions, but below is a practical workaround:
You can sync the SharePoint library to your local device using OneDrive Sync. Once synced:

- Select multiple Word documents.
- Right-click and choose “Print.”
If the “Print” option isn’t immediately visible, try clicking “Show more options” or use Shift + right-click to access the full context menu.
