It is supposed to auto detect if the power device and the printer have the same name, however i and others have had trouble with this.
You can get around it, by defining the name of the printers associated power device in your klipperscreen.conf
to make it work, in klipperscreen.conf i added this at the start of the file
e.g.
[printer Trident] power_devices: Printer
See: https://klipperscreen.github.io/KlipperScreen/Configuration/#printer-options
and issue with auto recognition: https://github.com/KlipperScreen/KlipperScreen/issues/1241

Requested feature
Power ON button would be nice to have within click on the main/home screen for relay controlled printers.
Is your feature request related to a problem?
I find just a bit hard to turn on my printer from the KlipperScreen as I'm using relay to control it. On the other hand it is quite easy to do that from the Mainsail.
Describe alternatives you have considered
Need to open Menu > Power to get to the Relay/Power controls
Additional information
Relays are controlled through the Moonraker and GPIOs on the Pi (BTT Pi in this case)
