First make sure you checked the correct checkboxes for confirming a QSO 
with a QSL card. There is no such thing as a Label Cnfm box - there are 
two separate checkboxes: the one called Label is used to mark the QSO in 
order to send out a paper QSL card to the station worked, while the 
other one, called Cnfm is used to mark a QSO for having received a paper 
QSL card. I apologize if I'm stating the obvious, but the reason I 
mention this is due to this:

Presumably, you have 29 thousand QSLs i.e. confirmed QSOs and if so, 
they have nothing to do with needing to print QSL labels that are 
selected by checking the Label box. Don't mess with them or you may wipe 
out your confirmation statistics and re-confirming 29 thousand entries 
manually is not something you'd want to attempt. If you filter by the 
Label=Y, the Report:Loogbook window will display only the QSOs marked 
for label printing.

When I want to print only a select few of the labels marked for 
printing, I usually set each QSO with Set QSL Date to today's date one 
at a time. When you now filter for Label=Y and QSL Date=01-27-2023, the 
Report:Loogbook window should display only those QSOs you want to print 
labels for. Go to QSL and select Print QSL Labels. When done, don't 
forget to clear Label flags and you're all set.
