[Feature] HMS/Print Error Card

[stephenpapierski]

Describe the feature

I would love to have a conditional card that displays the HMS error text with a link to the appropriate wiki page.

What device is this for?

Any

I think you should already be able to build that?

[stephenpapierski]

I could definitely template something together, or are you suggesting there's an easier way? I'm just thinking it would be easier if there was a ready made card that already did it. I'm also not opposed to putting in the work and submitting a pull request for a custom card if there might be any interest.

[stephenpapierski]

I put something simple together with a Markdown card that displays the printer and hms errors. Maybe not fully worth a custom card, but maybe it's worth having a place for people to share useful card templates?

That looks nice. A custom card so that people can use it off the shelf would be worthwhile.
