Trips learner, shattering computer peripheral (5,7)
I believe the answer is:
laser printer
'computer peripheral' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'trips learner shattering' is the wordplay.
'shattering' is an anagram indicator.
'trips'+'learner'='tripslearner'
'tripslearner' anagrammed gives 'LASER PRINTER'.
(Another definition for laser printer that I've seen is " Computer peripheral".)
I've seen this clue in The Times.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
