    Hi @bbsin 

    While this doesn't address your issue of how to create a "mail merge" from PowerApps, I have used the following method to print my letters out of MS Access instead of MS Word for the last 3 years.  There is a way to do it with Power Automate but that requires a premium connector.  Here is a post on how to do it.   https://tahoeninjas.blog/2020/03/13/generate-word-documents-from-a-template-using-power-automate/ .  

    Since I came to PowerApps from MS Access web apps,  I was more comfortable with this method.

    Create a report in Desktop access.

    1. Open Desktop Access and create a linked table to your SharePoint list. 
    2. Highlight the table and create a query that you can use to control which data you want to use in your report, Ie. set the date range, etc.  Save and name the query.
    3. Highlight the query. You can then use the Create Report feature to create your report/merge and print it from there.
