Kernal Panic At Startup

Question

HI i have a MBP and go to college for the last week i have been getting the Kernal Panic at the start up while at school but when i went home and nothing was pluged into my computer it started up fine. so when i got back to school i started try to start up with pluging 1 thing out to try to find out what was causing the Kernal Panic. it seemes like that either my printer pluged in by USB or my Power cord are causing them would that make any sense.
Thanks for all the help
Here is my report from apple-

Answer 1

if they can't resolve it via
phone, have them send it in for repair.
Which would not resolve anything if it is an invalid driver being used for the printer. It would be returned as no toruble found, yet your printer would continue to cause the issue at home.
if that doesn't resolve it, it could be a hardware issue.
back up your hard drive and request a new machine.
Apple will not replace your macbook simply because a third party peripheral device causes a kernel panic.
you should be stressed nor should you be tasked with
troubleshooting a $2,000 laptop that's no more than a
few months old.
Actually yes, computer maintenance and upkeep does fall to the owner. Making sure all software, firmware, and drivers are up to date is your responsibility, and one should never expect Apple to be able to remedy any situations that arise when these are neglected.
Best solution is to download all software and firmware updates for the computer, and make sure your drivers for your printer are up to date as well. If the issue occurs when no peripheral devices are attached but on the AC power, I would advise testing the computer with a known good adapter (this can be done at an apple store or authorized service provider.)
