I created an account to file this as a bug as I've now been running into it
repeatedly for several months, but found it already open here so I'll comment
here:
In the case of labels at least, "print automatically inserted blank pages" is
not a behaviour anyone would ever want. It's nothing but a sharp edge for users
who have to go and find a setting - worse, you have to turn it off *every time*
you print a new document of labels.
I can see the argument that turning the setting off affects other use cases
outside labels, but for labels it should always be turned off. I can see a few
ways of doing it:
1. Detect/declare whether a document consists of labels, turn the setting off
by default in that case.
2. Fix the problem earlier in the chain by modifying the label-producing code
to alternate left and right pages (I understand this is the root cause of the
issue).
I don't really see how this is 'not a bug' - it may be an intended part of the
overall design, but if you look at it only from the point of view of producing
labels, inserting always-unwanted blank pages that need to be turned off looks
like a bug to me.
