I have done the same thing as you with the same labels.
I have never had it skip labels. Subsequent pages start with position 1, row
1 and continue as expected.
I don't know what to tell you.
You didn't say what operating system, printer and are your printer drivers
up to date.

I know I haven't been much help. But sometimes knowing that it does work may
give you a clue or direction in which to check.

Good luck and let me know if you have success or find a cure.

Subject: [DXBase] DXBase 2002 batch label printing bug


> I discovered what I believe is a bug in DXBase 2002's batch QSO label
printing routine.
>
> I am using a standard DXBase 3 QSO label design on Avery 5960 (5160) label
sheets.  To keep the label sheets from jamming in my HP printer, I print one
page at a time.
>
> If my first 5960 sheet (10 rows by 3 columns) for a print run starts
somewhere beyond the first label, say in the 10th position (row 4 col 1),
the first 21 labels in my print run are printed OK.  When I print the second
page, using the print range page 2 to page 2, DXBase 2002 starts with label
number 31 in the QSO label database and prints 30 labels on the sheet.
Labels 22 to 30 are NEVER PRINTED, however DXBase updates the QSO records to
show QSL S and SENT DATE for these not-printed labels.  DXbase should have
started page 2 with label 22 and so on.
>
> I have been catching up on a lot of QSLing the past month.  Several
thousand direct and buro cards in dozens of batches.  DXBase has probably
marked as sent several hundred QSLs which are in fact not sent.  What a
mess.
