A very good idea - if the printers are of the laser-type. The laser 
printers have a drum which needs to heat up before it can fix the toner 
to the paper. This draws a very high power for several seconds.

You can safely use ink-jet printers on the protected side of an UPS, 
they are nowhere near in power consumption.
