You'd still have to generate the PDFs individually, which is just
'printing to a file' and so not really saving any clicks. *Then* you
need to send them to the printer with more clicks as you describe.
I could be mistaken, but I understood the issue was having to go through
the steps:
1. Generate an Invoice (lots of clicks and typing, even with the
duplicate function)
2. Print it (select printer, adjust settings, etc.)
3. Repeat for each member
While in this case it is only an annual workflow, having more than a
dozen or so of these to do all at once is tedious, and having 50+ is
crazy repetitive and a strain on fingers. (and increases the probability
of doing something wrong due to the monotony)
If steps #1 and #2 aren't done at the same time. Then you could add:
1a. Do a Find for the invoice(s) or open invoices from AR via the 'jump
to invoice' on the right click menu
1b. Display the Invoice Report
Optionally the steps can be reversed which runs an Invoice Report, and
then you have to choose which customer and invoice. (even more clicks)
No matter the workflow chosen, lots and lots of clicks are involved with
the present state of GnuCash. The Business Features were designed for a
small consultancy that occasionally generates a few invoices. That
doesn't mean you can't use it otherwise, but it wasn't optimized for
other use cases.

If printing is your only issue, I suggest that you make pdfs of your
invoices through Gnucash and store them all in the same folder.
When you go to print, use file explorer, go to the pdf folder where your
invoices are stored and select which pdf files you want to print. Then,
right click on one of the selected files and left click on *print*. All
selected files should print individually for you on your default printer.
