Currently I have come up with a strange issue, tried to search on the web but had no luck (not sure if I am too dumb to get the key words correct
)
I have a laser printer, a desktop, and an old house.
To protect the computer and printer from surge, I put them into the same surge suppressor and they have been working well.
However, whenever my printer operates, the lights flash a bit, I am worrying if the printer is actually causing surges itself.
In this case, can the surge suppressor protects the PC from the possible surge generated by the printer?
Or I should plug the printer elsewhere?
Many thanks
