[Ham-Mac] RFI?

Today I tuned up my AL-1500 on 17. Didn't work anyone, but later,
when I tried to print to my Epson CX4600 it just hung up. My HP 1012
laserjet was fine. After lots of time reloading the Epson software, I
decided to unplug the printer and reboot everything, reboot by
zapping the pram and resetting the open firmware. FINALLY it worked
again.
So I wondered, why would only the CX4600 be a problem? I didn't even
get noise in the external speakers when running 1500W, so I don't
think it's the iMac G5.
My guess is that it's RFI getting into the printer itself. The next
time I decide to run full bore, I'll try to remember to shut the
printer off and unplug it, and see what happens.
Anyone out there have any comments or experience on this?
