No printer paper. Missed flight

Kind of a weird situation and was wondering what compensation I'm entitled to, if any.

I arrived at the airport about 10 minutes before check-in was scheduled for closing for my AS flight with my party of 4. We had one checkin bag and 3 carryons. We were waiting in line at the check-in counter. After a few minutes they announced that they ran out of paper for the bag tags and would no longer be checking in luggage. I had no choice but to stay back with the check-in bag while the rest of my party boarded the flight with carryons. I was rebooked on a flight 24 hours later.

Are US airlines required to compensate me for any expenses incurred as a result? I didn't get a hotel as I live in the city but what about meals and transportation?
