I just bought an HP printer - HP Deskjet 3050

It is my goal to print and scan documents while installing the smallest amount of bloatware possible. With HP, I assume this will be exceedingly difficult. Ideally, I'd like to install the drivers only: no software, no bundles, no giant help files, no processes constantly monitoring my ink levels, etc.

If anyone would be willing to help me with this, I would be quite grateful!
