Author Printing Datasets

I have a template with five variables in it. I want to print each
dataset for this template underneath each other:

Dataset 1
Dataset 2
Dataset 3
etc.

I am sure there is an easy way to write some code to arrange these
datasets, but i am not familiar with writing code. I know how to work
with the XML that comes from saving a variable library, but that is the
extent what i know.

These datasets have varying height (all are at least 1 inch in height)
But have the same width (8.5 inches)

Dataset 1
1
1

Dataset 2
2

Dataset 3
3
3
3
3

etc.

I want to maximize my printing by arranging them directly underneath
each other on 8.5 x 11 pages. I tried to create an action but since i
do not know any programming languages it is difficult to manipulate. IS
THERE AN EASY WAY TO AUTOMATE THIS PROCESS?
