I have a list of links to lots (I mean hundreds) of HTML-pages with one bill each. How can I automate printing all of those pages at once with a printer (no PDF)? I think I saw an add-on for Firefox once, that lets you download all links in a selection at once, but I cannot remember. Also I need to print them automatically after downloading.

For the printing process itself:
Under "Internet Explorer" you have, in the print-dialog under options, the option to "Print all linked documents". Use this with care. It will print all linked pages. (including disclaimer, info etc.)
For Firefox i only found a plugin which prints all open tabs. With Universal Print you can print all open tabs (or selected ones). You can use Ctrl + Left click on all your documents opening them in a background tab after which you can print them all with Universal Print.
As i said the printing goes to PDF-files (downloaded in a folder) after which you can select them all in the folder and with Right-click/Print print them all.
