Enclosure after upgrade?

Hello, I was wondering if anyone else upgraded their MK4 to the MK4S and had an enclosure. The screen no longer can be mounted to the outside of the enclosure with the parts that came with the upgrade. If I do mount it, the doors will not open as it sits at a different angle now. I have it currently directly attached to my printer and have the whole thing in the enclosure. Just wondering if anyone had this issue and what they did about it.

RE: Enclosure after upgrade?

I upgraded my MK4 w/enclosure to MK4S w/enclosure and there were a couple parts that I had to download and print. See https://forum.prusa3d.com/forum/assembly-and-troubleshooting/mk4s-enclosure-external-display-confusion/ for some options, both Prusa provided and community provided.

Sadly, ever since Prusa reorganized (IMHO borked) the assembly website, links to assembly steps in older forum messages no longer work...

See my (limited) designs on:

RE: Enclosure after upgrade?

I recently also upgraded my MK4 with Original Prusa Enclosure to an MK4S. I had one with the older xLCD screen. So I received a 3D printed front cover for the screen, was a bit disappointed that in all the time since the MK4 was released Prusa had not managed to make a back cover for version B of the xLCD, so I looked for available options on Printables. I found one, the author had included a step file for it and I could make a remix with an adapted hole pattern for version B of the screen. To attach the screen to the enclosure I used these brackets.
I also upgraded my MK3S+ with enclosure to an MK4S because I was tired of having to change between two printer types. The upgrade for that printer came with a new xLCD screen and to attach that one to the enclosure I used these brackets.
