A while ago (just before LGM2008) there was a discussion in #inkscape about support for cutters/plotters.
Then this question came out: https://answers.launchpad.net/inkscape/+question/35004
So now there is this wiki page where we try to collect all possible information and describe some sane solution to handle the issue in a crossplatform way.
Any input highly appreciated!
I updated the inkscape wiki here as best as I could: http://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php?title=BlueprintCutterControl&act...
I cleared up my confusion as to where to find Ulisses' patch to Vidar's python scripts. When I took a closer look, I saw Ulisses described changed instead of providing a patch file so I changed that wording as well. Also saw where Ulisses described what is needed for a Wishblade to work w/Vidar's scripts so added that to the wishblade entry. I think the blue and pink versions of the wishblade are different so I identified the existing information as blue and added a pink wishblade line. Also added a general comment for Windows and Mac as I think python and glade are available for both platforms. However, the access to the USB devices is most likely different and would require some code changes to the Vidar's python script. Also, changed the URL to the name Vidar gave his python script, "graphtecprint".
I am not sure, but I think the Craft ROBO is a CC200-20. Anyone know for sure?
I think there is an error in Ulisses description of code changes for Vidar's python script. I believe there should be an "OR" instead of an "AND" when he modifies a line to allow for both "Graphtec" *or* "Wishblade Inc." plotters.
Can I just add the patch I have for Vidar's phython script here on this wiki page. It enhances Vidar's scripts w/: 1) Allows for re-positioning of image before cutting w/preview. 2) Does repeat cutting for thick media w/o running through alignment.
...thanks
