Linux Mint Rafeala 17.2 
LibreOffice 5.0.1.2
I am experiencing a similar problem. I have a list of names and addresses in a
spreadsheet. I start the File_>New->Labels dialog. I setup the database to
point to the spreadsheet and the table containing my data. I transfer the
fields I want to use into the template in inscription using an Avery J8165
Label. The format matches the J8165 labels I am using. In the options tab I
select Entire page and syncronize contents, then select New Document. In the
new document which is created I add an image (logo) to the top of the first
label select it and then syncronise labels. On a first attempt to print, either
to file or a printer I did not get a file created or any print job created. As
per comment below I selected View_>Datasources and checked that the selected
spreadsheet and table were appearing as the data source. After selecting the
top left cell and selecting all records and pressing the Data to Fields button,
and then reprinting the file selecting No to the dialog about printing a form
letter,  I managed to get a the first page printed out correctly but the 6
records on a second page did not print. I then repeated the above steps
(View_>Datasources etc) and attempted to print to file using the Yes to the
question about printing a form letter, selecting all records and print to file,
entering a filename in the save dialog and saving. No file is produced. 

By going back to the View_>Datasources, selecting the remaining records and
repeating the print procedure which had worked for the first page I also
managed to print the remaining records.
This is definitely not working as per the documentation which is also fairly
unclear on the differences between selecting Yes and No in the dialog which
comes up re using Mail Merge to print a form letter. I fail to see why this
dialog is even necessary as if one is printing Labels using the Label wizard it
is pretty clear one does not want to print a form letter. I guess the mail
merge procedure is being used to create the Labels from the Label template
created.  This just cost me three hours in processing orders.
