I am using a laserjet II, and have defined setups for the various
fonts that we wish to use. The modules in the device control library
contain just the escape sequence to initialize the printer.

All works fine, but I get a blank sheet of paper printed for each of the
setup and reset sequences.  Is there anyway to get around this?

These are the setups we use:

$ set printer/cr/lowercase/printall/passall lca0:
$initialize/queue/start/lib=laserjetlib/on=lca0: -
    /separate=(reset=reset,noburst,noflag,notrailer)
       /default=(noflag,noburst,notrailer,form=prestige) laser
$define/form/stock=default prestige 1 /desc="Portrait Prestige" -
        /setup=(prestige) /length=70/wid=96/margin=(bottom=0)/nowrap/notrunc
$define .....etc
