This is a simple way to illuminate your print area without breaking the bank, costing under twenty bucks and offering non-permanent installation with modular light output, making it reusable for other projects as needed. Print two of these adapters and twist them into the top bar of your printer. Securely attach an Anker 4x USB HUB with one to four USB LEDs depending on how much illumination you require. To connect the hub to your power source, I used a USB extension cable from my Raspberry Pi, but you can opt for a buck/step-down converter and hardwire it directly into your printer's power supply.

Update 2: After running these LEDs (three in total) for a week straight, they only become warm to the touch but pose no significant issues. Update 1: Initially, I had to reduce the number of LEDs from four to three due to excessive brightness affecting my camera's night shots. Two or three LEDs seem to be the ideal balance. I've added photos to illustrate this setup.
