If your Print Button In Page work Correctly, You can its macro to Quick access toolbar.
Select down arrow at the end of quick access toolbar. Then Select More Command.
Change Popular commands to Macro and then Select your Macro name for Print.

This is
VBA Code:
Sub PageTestForPrint()
Dim MyRange As Range
Dim ws As Worksheet
Dim Lastrow As Long
Dim i As Long
Dim n As Long
Dim PrintArea As String
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Set ws = ActiveSheet
Sheets("Sheet2").Visible = True
Sheets("Sheet2").Select
For i = 1 To 30840
If Cells(34 * i + 8, 1).Value <> "" Then
n = i + 1
Else
GoTo Printing
End If
Next i
Printing:
Debug.Print n
Sheets("sheet2").PrintOut
Sheets("Sheet2").Visible = False
Sheets("Sheet1").Select
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub

Test this. Print One sheet after Activesheet Always.
VBA Code:
Sub PageTestForPrint()
Dim MyRange As Range
Dim ws As Worksheet
Dim Lastrow As Long
Dim i As Long
Dim n As Long
Dim j As Long
Dim PrintArea As String
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Set ws = ActiveSheet
j = ActiveSheet.Index
Debug.Print j
Sheets(j + 1).Visible = True
Sheets(j + 1).Select
For i = 1 To 30840
If Cells(34 * i + 8, 1).Value <> "" Then
n = i + 1
Else
GoTo Printing
End If
Next i
Printing:
Debug.Print n
Sheets(j + 1).PrintOut
Sheets(j + 1).Visible = False
Sheets(j).Select
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub
