Power for light from MK4

I have an idea to make a simple working led light for MK4.
Please is it possible to get power from the printer? If yes, where and how much energy (power/Watt) can i take?

Yes, you can draw power from the printer's psu.

The psu is rated at 24 vdc and can supply up to 10 amps.

I wouldn't draw more than about 2 amps (48 watts) from the psu, as the printer needs most of the power it can supply.

The power connections (screw terminals) are labeled on the power supply.

I can confirm that. I have a filtration system and rougly one meter of LED strip running directly off the PSU, no problems whatsoever.
