I have heard a figure of 40A inrush mentioned, Like herehttp://www.crs-uk.biz/pdf/HP_1100.pdf
Doesn't say how many mS, but MCBs are fast acting.


Lots of appliances have inrush current figures of 40A and higher. It
means nothing.

If the printer is popping a trip then the pr is almost certainly
faulty.
