I'd probably do no more than ping an HP printer.  The ones I've had
experience with did a horrible job of multitasking.  One would even
consistently freeze up if I just telnet'd to 9000 on it.

But if you want to see if it works (hey, maybe they've improved, it's
been a while), you could probably check_tcp 515 and/or 9000.  Or even
lpq/rlpq | egrep 'this|that|theotherthing'.
