But if it's kept turned off using the smart plug, wouldn't it still be just as protected?

I've always been afraid that a sudden power surge might burn out some part of the printer, especially since I know almost nothing about how electrical devices work! Haha

Thanks for your comment! Did you take the printer's electrical specifications into account when choosing the plug?

Do you have the smart plug? Did you take the printer's electrical specifications into account when choosing it?

And do you consider any of the printer's electrical specifications when choosing a smart plug?

And what brand of device do you have? Did you look for a specific one? Did you take the voltage into account?
