A number of questions come to mind in order to understand your situation.
Attempting to provide a solution for your printer directly is not addressing
the root cause.
1) power level diffential between the Henry and L7 to understand the
differences in RF fields levels generated from your antennas.
2) proximity of antennas and orientation to the shack
3) differences how the Henry and L7 are wired to house circuits
4) Extent of AC bypassing on both amps
5) Shack grounding/bonding detail. Reradiation from wiring may be partially to
blame due to resonant lengths of said extraneous shack/house wiring
