data dsets;

%macro print(dname=);
proc print data=&dname;
run;
%mend;
%print(dname=dsets);
Consider using CALL EXECUTE:
data dsets;
input datasets$ 40.;
datalines;
sashelp.class
sashelp.cars
sashelp.shoes
run;
data _null_;
set dsets;
call execute(cats('proc print data=',datasets,';run;'));
run;
Consider a change of strategy. Printing all data sets is usually unnecessary and produces so much output that you can't possibly look at it all. You can view (not print) as needed, any data sets you have in your SAS application, a superior approach in my opinion.
