I'm not sure if you can do it from the same page, but try doing something
like this:

Use an anchor with target="_blank" as follows:

<a href="firstpagetoprint.aspx" target="_blank">Print</a>

In firstpagetoprint.aspx, include the following in the onload event of the
body tag:

window.print();window.location.replace("secondpagetoprint.aspx");

Include this code in the onload event of the body tag for
thirdpagetoprint.aspx, fourthpagetoprint.aspx, fifthpagetoprint.aspx, etc.
Then, in the onload event of the body tag for lastpagetoprint.aspx, use the
following:

window.print();window.close();

Doing this will basically open a new page in a new window, print it, move to
the next page, print it, and after printing the last page, close the new
window. Unfortunately, because this requires you to have a different URL for
each section you want to print, you may need or want to make an aspx page
that takes a query string to generate the content you want printed for that
specific section. Hopefully this helps!

Serverside code could supply different results with the same url,
using a counter stored in a session variable.

However you could get clientside cashing problems.

Classic ASP example:

<a href="pagenumbertoprint.asp?1" target="_blank">Print</a>

window.print();window.location.replace("pagenumbertoprint.asp?2");

window.print();window.location.replace("pagenumbertoprint.asp?3");

etc

will do nicely using serverside:

<% ' Jscript
var n = Request.querystring;
if (n=1) {
%>
-- first page ---
<%
} else if (n=2) {
%>
-- second page ---
<%
} else if (n=3) {
// etc etc
