Foreflight basic has all you need and it also comes with a PLOG inbuilt into the software if you really need. There’s very little gain printing out or plotting on paper charts these days, particularly in the world of PBN. More often than not when flying IFR around N.Europe you’ll get a direct or change of routing at some point so the plan goes out the window in any case.
Your time will be better spent getting to grips with the G1000 before your IR course so you don’t waste valuable time trying to figure out how it works. I can recommend the ipad app simionic for that.
Good luck.
