TT doesn't print first page of form 8949 - ok to send just page 2?

I have just filed my 2023 taxes electronically. The filing instructions say that I have to mail form 8453, with form 8949 attached. 

 

The return has two form(s) 8949 - one with box D checked, one with box E checked, both in Part II of the forms. Part I is blank in both forms (no short-term transactions to report). 

 

When I try to "Print Active Form" from TT, I can see the entire 2-page form on my screen but only the 2nd page prints (i.e. only Part II). 

 

Is there a way to get TT to print the entire form, or is it acceptable to mail only Part II of each form?

 

Thank you very much.

The second page has the information that will match what is on your tax return on schedule D. It also includes your name and social security number, so it should be fine to just submit the second page.
