What happens is the following...

When you load LRF/LRX onto the Reader using eBook Library, it does the work of paginating the eBook. It loads this information onto the Reader.

Calibre does not prepaginate LRF/LRX. So when you open any of them, the Reader has to do it and that is where most of the issues happen.

So the easiest way to do it is to use eBook Library for loading LRF/LRX. For ePub (sans DRM), Calibre is fine to use. Not sure about ePub with DRM.
