Add items to combobox in WPF within a canvas

Good day,
I want to add specific items to my combobox, but am running into an error.
Code:
Add-Type -AssemblyName PresentationFramework
[xml]$Form = @"

Your block that says:
<ComboBox Name="ComboBox_Location" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Margin="170,56,0,0" VerticalAlignment="Top" Width="160"/>
<ComboBoxItem Content="X"/>
<ComboBoxItem Content="Y"/>
<ComboBoxItem Content="Z"/>
</ComboBox>
The first line ends in a />, in which that closing tag designates the end of your ComboBox definition. Instead, you want to end it with > and let your corresponding </ComboBox> line close your block.

Your XAML combobox had a closing tag when it shouldn't:

<TextBox Name="textbox_username" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Height="23" Margin="30,56,0,0" TextWrapping="Wrap" VerticalAlignment="Top" Width="120"/>
<ComboBox Name="ComboBox_Location" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Margin="170,56,0,0" VerticalAlignment="Top" Width="160">
<ComboBoxItem Content="X"/>
<ComboBoxItem Content="Y"/>
<ComboBoxItem Content="Z"/>
</ComboBox>
<Label Name="label_printer" Content="Please select printer from list" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Margin="30,105,0,0" VerticalAlignment="Top"/>
