Unless the code has changed significantly since I last looked at this,
I strongly suspect that the Net-SNMP implementation of the Host Resources
MIB would probably not detect such printer problems.

If the printer in question is a networked printer, you might well do better
interrogating it directly, using printer-specific (and/or vendor-specific)
MIB values.
  It would also be worth considering exactly what sort of errors you are
interested in, and seeing how those situations might be represented in the
MIBs supported by your printers.
