/diy/ - Do It Yourself

Depends. My old printer takes a good 7-10 minutes (haven't timed it in a while) in a cheap enclosure, my new one maybe 3-5 at most.

My eternal recommendation for enclosures - cheap, dampens sound, easy to put together, and you can even carve a hole in the front for a window if you really want to. I've got 4 of those smaller kids' ones with the alphabet I use for the front pane, so I can remove a letter or two and use that as a face/hand hole without too much heat escaping. I've gotten two other people to use it, use it for both my printers, and even gotten them for the print lab at work, everybody loves them so far. 1/2" is okay but a bit saggy over time, 3/4" is great, and 1" is definitely too thick, for reference (as I've tried them all).
