There's a button called "USE MY OWN BAG". Press that button and the system will prompt you to put your bags on and will retare appropriately.

Though sometimes I've noticed you don't need to do that, which is maybe why you've never gone looking for that button (?), interpreting it as just a buggy POS POS.
