It's a bug with Scribe Colorsoft firmware.

I can reproduce what you are seeing with the old format (KF8 - uses file extension .azw3). AZW3 still gets used. I have one that was published in March 2024 but it downloads as AZW3 for Kindle for PC.

There are also fixed layout books in AZW3 fixed layout format which combine text and full page images. These seem to render as blank pages, and only display in page flip mode.
