There is a software method, I believe, that will disable this.  However,
this is a much simpler (and easier way for me to remember) to defeat
this.  After the LW is powered up, pull the paper feeder out so that
the LW thinks (correctly) there is no paper available.  Once the LW
is ready (on a LW+, the green light goes on, don't know on a LWIINT),
push the paper tray back in.  Bingo, no cover page printed.
