I've used a HP T522.ppd USB printer (portable, battery plugs in) a fair bit but not for over a year right at this point. From memory it told me ink levels and only required a t522.ppd. Don't have printer with me for a month, and can't find any screen suggesting printer current status. Been a little while sorry...
