Yes, Pete there is supposed to be a way to do this.  In 8.05, try this:

QSL | Mark QSL band/mode

Out of my 100K QSOs, 30K were so marked this way.  I did a spot check
of a few calls and it appeared to do what you want.  Make sure to use
the F8 trick to filter out USA stations (you could always clear the
flags for USA [or other] stations after the fact, using a filter).  I
don't know what happens if the "QSL Date" field is set to a date,
whether a label is still generated or not (you already sent a card).
I suspect NO but I did not check for this.

NOTE: If a QSO is marked as Confirmed by either LoTW or eQSL, you will
still get a label print flag.  This operation only considers the QSL
status, not the eQSL or LoTW status.
