I know many people including myself, keep printers in their bedrooms and living spaces. It can be difficult to fall asleep with the printer running, but if you pause it or turn it off, you lose many valuable print hours. My proposed solution to this would be to have a feature that allows you to pause the printer for a certain amount of time, lets say maybe 30 minutes or an hour, so that way you can fall asleep and the print will automatically resume after.

Great idea. I came here looking for the such a feature, but for an alternative use. It would be great if you could add a pause at any stage of the print with a timer to resume (in the slicer and maybe even during the print from the app or printer).
Fans are still up and running, when the printer is on hold. So you wouldn’t hear the head moving - but the fans are noisy.
Yep, but it is still much nicer to have a gentle blowing sound than my printer aggressively moving at 400mm/s.
