One way I've solved the ink-level reporting problem, is to install the 
printer in a Windows partition, and run the Windows partition to find 
out how much ink is remaining.  I really hate that solution, though if 
the Windows partition is in a Virtual Box, it isn't too annoying.

My current (HP) all-in-one printer includes a small screen on the 
printer itself, which shows ink levels.
