The second screenshot shows the list of formats you are allowing to send to the device. As that doesn't include epubs, whenever you send an epub, it will be converted to the first format in that list. That format is kepub. Hence, every time you send a new epub to the device, it is converted to an epub, saved in the library and then sent to the device. And because you are converting the books kepub, you aren't actually using any of the features of the extended driver. Or at least none I can think of.
Ok...so I just tried sending a book that was already in epub format, and it didn't save a kepub in my library, even though it sent a kepub to the device. When I send a book that is in .azw3 format, however, it saves a kepub in my library every time.
