Securing 3d printer

Hello theres! Does anyone have any suggestions on how I can safely secure my flashforge creator pro to my school workstation/table leg? Atm, it is being threaded with a steel cable (the thick ones you can buy at home depot ) through the handle and door (door can't fully close atm). I prefer not to drill and cut through it, if so, very minimally.. Can anyone please offer some suggestions? I do not want to keep the cable where it is right now cause it interferes when I do want to print. Thank you!!!

what kind of feet does it have ?

Maybe repalce with wood and screw through the table into the wooden feet.

Other than that the cable idea is probably the best way to go.

Yeh I think I will have to go with the cable. It came with legs that have rubber on the ends

You could drill a couple of holes in the plastic panels, one on the lower left rear and one on the bottom of the left panel so that you can loop the cable around the left rear metal frame member. Be sure you're above the bottom plate when you measure.
