We have not got this working with Inkscape at the moment, but are having a fiddle. If you do manage to get this working with it, please let us know. (The cutters are supplied with software which can't be moved between machines, hence trying to get inkscape or something similar to work in the first instance.)
This appears to be a problem with inkscape which may be fixed in current versions, but apparently 0.92 was the last inkscape some plotters worked reliably on.
