It's not a defect, and there is nothing that needs to be fixed. Form 8949 is not really a two-page form. It's two one-page forms tied together, but they are used independently. Page 1 is for short-term transactions and page 2 is for long-term transactions. If you have only long-term sales, page 1 is not used. It's empty and is not part of your tax return, so it doesn't print. There's nothing on it to print.
