Comments.Text: I would also like to be able to select multiple contacts and print summaries for them. A report isn't going to do for me, because I need to be able to print image files as part of the summary. I suspect there is no out of the box way to do this, but I suspect it wouldn't be hard to develop an extension to add this - which would be a good candidate for core, imo. I'd see if my organization could contribute to such development.

  This might be quicker/fewer clicks than totally manual printing when you are dealing with dozens or hundreds of contacts. Still not a great option, though.
  
  1. Get a list of all the ContactIDs that you want to print.
  2. Merge each CID into the appropriate "Print Summary" URL for your CMS. For Joomla, it is [domain]/administrator/?option=com\_civicrm&task=civicrm/contact/view/print&reset=1&print=1&cid=xxxx
  3. Put the list of merged URLs into your favorite text editor that creates automatic links, and click on each one.
  
  Not really an answer to how to print multiple at once, but it might be a useful workflow for a non-programmer until a proper solution is devised.
