Vinyl cutter ignores 'Pin Up' commands

Postby raboof » Wed Feb 14, 2018 7:28 am

Hi!

I've been experimenting with driving vinyl cutters with Inkscape.

I have access to a Roland Camm-1 CX-24. When attaching it via the parallel port it and sending files that have been exported to HPGL to it, it works great! Over the parallel port it does not appear to work, I have yet to look into that.

I also have access to a Silhouette Portrait. This is a Parallel-over-USB device, but it appears to ignore all 'Pin Up' commands (PUx,y).

Has anyone seen that before? Any fixes/workarounds?
