Laser Printer Exhaust Deflector

thingiverse

There's a Brother MFC-8710DW printer sitting right next to me at work, but its exhaust is giving me a headache and blowing papers all over my desk, so I took matters into my own hands and designed an exhaust deflector. After several failed prints in PLA material, I finally managed to get a successful print in ABS plastic. Using a raft, supports, and slow print speed was essential - it was a real challenge. If I had been smarter (I'm still learning), I would've turned the design so that the front opening was facing downwards. That way, support wouldn't have been necessary, even during printing. If you decide to print this deflector, please let me know how it goes and what kind of results you get.
