Monitoring HP plotters?



 I have an HP DesignJet 130nr plotter, and I'm trying to find a way to 
remotely monitor its status, especially to monitor the ink cartridges 
so I can replace them before users start complaining that they're 
empty. 

The web interface doesn't seem to support this, and when I enable 
SNMP and do an snmpwalk, all I get is network-related information, 
nothing about ink levels or the status of the paper roll. 

A google search and a search of www.hp.com didin't turn up anything 
about SNMP for this plotter. 

Has anyone else found a way to monitor these devices? I'd like to 
find something I can plug into Nagios, if possible.
