I'm a landscaper and I am constantly giving estimates. Usually I go to the location, take notes, come home and on a night I'm not too busy type it all up and come back the next day and stick the estimate in the person's mailbox. I want to speed up the process, and I don't like giving people estimates in my sloppy handwriting.

That all being said, I wanted to wire up a printer to my truck. I looked into battery operated units, and they sell for about $400 which is way too much. I wanted to wire up a cheap printer to my truck so I can bring my laptop with me and print wherever I am. I've never wired up a thing in my life, so how would I go about doing this?
