Power line switch as main printer switch

The location of the PSU switch is a awkward when using the enclosure; while I couldn't see the main switch on the schematics I assume there's no more than a typical switch on line

That said, can I use a secondary switch on the cable? I use this extension on my notebook PSU with great results

Yup, it's rated for 10A/250V. I like the one I bought since it has a robust build aside from the published specs: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07QJWLZFJ

I use smart plugs to turn my printers on and off no problem

That inline switch will be fine.

Same here, I have a combined smart switch and surge protector I use for my printer - works flawlessly
