Maybe you could rig something up with retractable badge holders. You might be able to get them for free from your work.
Yes, something like this I was thinking about. A boom arm or pole or something like that would then reach over the printer and the retractable badge holders could hold the cables and feed tube up without interfering with them that much.
This is exactly what I do. I had a couple retractable cables let over from my wired-VR days and rigged it up on my CR10s. Works great. Here's a pic - they tops are just connected to the top rail with a rubber band for easy removal. (this was take through the "window" in my enclosure, so you can't see the top)
