Interesting...
Just came across this Standard & Poors site which does exactly what I suggested to silently print PDFs from a web server - including batch printing of multiple files.
http://mi.compustat.com/
They use MIME (Content Type) application/x-batprint, file extension ".ibp". The end user installs "bphelper.exe" helper app, which is called when a resource with this MIME is downloaded by IE or Netscape. The ".ibp" apparently has URLs to multiple PDFs, which are downloaded and printed by bphelper.exe, to batch print multiple files which the user has selected on the web page.
