Yes, for lasers or photocopiers using a UPS is not recommended. I do use a
surge suppressor for those kinds of units, but a heavy duty one that will
not pop an internal circuit breaker when the current demand spikes.
For ink jet and impact printers
I don't think he has the printers on the UPS, just on
the same circuit. When the laser printer goes off,
the UPS senses a brown-out condition and fire.
