Is it posssible to select multiple items and then print their attributes? The steps I followed are:

1. Select multiple items
2. File | Print
3. Item Attribute

The attributes from one item is printed.

When selecting multiple items, the Item Attributes pane shows the attributes that exist for all the selected items (with a blank value if they differ, or the actual value if the same for all items), to allow editing attributes for multiple items at once.

Here is one way to print all of the attribute values of multiple items: http://www.kinook.com/Forum/showthread.php?threadid=2104

Other options would be to export to CSV or XML format, and then format and print as desired from Excel, IE, etc.

Yes, I figured this.

Still, printing attributes is different than editing attributes for multiple items. I understand what you are saying, but if I follow this logic, why would a unique item title get printed out? Since that atttribute is not shared, shouldn't it appear blank?

It looks like the item title for print/preview comes from the first selected item. It probably should instead default to a blank title or 'x Items selected' with multiple selection.

You can change the title in Page Setup -> Headers.

I agree.
