I wanted to relocate the power switch to the front so I made a screen cover that has a lid with a place for a switch.

UPDATE 1: I was asked if i could do a model without the switch. It is included now.
I wanted to relocate the power switch to the front so I made a screen cover that has a lid with a place for a switch. I also added a spot to relocate the Wi-Fi antenna from the inside of the frame to a stubby external antenna. The result is convenience for powering on the printer and a faster connection to the printer with no lag on the video.
Unplug the main power before doing any work.
You have to take the bottom cover off on the printer to access the wiring.
Unplug the stock Wi-Fi antenna carefully and run the new Wi-Fi antenna through the slot for the screen ribbon and plug the new Wi-Fi antenna.
Plug the wires to the switch on the screen cover. Run the wire through the screen ribbon slot. Unplug the two wire plug from the stock switch and run one wire from the front (new) switch to the stock switch tab that you disconnected and the other wire from the front switch to the two wire plug that you disconnected.
Connect the power cable and turn on the back switch. Now you can turn the power on and off with the switch in the front.
The lid is secured with two 2mm x 20mm pins inserted on either side.
