Installing the printer
To get the printer into the enclosure, insert its left side first.
Avoid scratching the side panels with the printer!
Place the printer at an angle (as shown in the picture) in the enclosure behind the anti-slip dampers.
It's just a temporary position of the printer. We will adjust the correct position later.

From inside the enclosure, grasp the PSU by its handle in your hand.
It is more convenient to use the right hand.
Insert the PSU through the hole at the bottom of the back panel. Start by pushing through the part with the PSU-retainer (the part with the magnets).

Place the edge of the door panel on the door trim. Both sides of the panel are symmetrical. It doesn't matter which side you put it on the door trim. It is important that the circular hole is placed on the door trim.
Align the edges of the door panel with both ends of the door trim.
Proceed the same with the second door panel.
In the next step, we will need door-magnet-a and door-magnet-b. These parts are not the same! Both parts are marked with the letter "A" and "B" and have a different shape.
