As long as you have notepad, you're good.

I would have suggested Sublime. But you still can't print with it properly (only with an extension which prints in background with another program). Sure normally you don't need to print code and with missing markup possibilities it's pointless anyway. But sometimes a raw easy list of ideas needs to be printed.
Now I selfhost a markdown editor just for that usecase.
