I run a vinyl cutter (same idea more interesting "pen") this way. You can
sort of drive it via the print layer but I gave up doing so and use some
scripts to take the HPGL from inkscape as I wanted more control.

There are lots of gotchas with trying to get normal printing working -
all the bitmaps vanish (naturally enough) and there are a lot of bitmaps
lurking in some postscript output.
