    Hello,
    I just got an old unnamed plotter and tried to use it with Inkcut. It works well, with almost no configuration.
    But something bothers me: on Inkcuts "Preview", the origin is set to the bottom left of the "material". But my plotter has it's pen/cutter on right. When I run the print, my drawing is printed from the right, with a rotation of 90°.
    Is there a way to change the rotation and origin in Inkcut, so the preview is exactly what will be printed?
    Thanks.

    Hi nniico, sorry for my English, but I think I can help you.
    In most plotters, material "in" to the plotter from right to left (X axis) and moves the cutter down/up (Y axis).
    If you see the plotter from its front, you can go to Device -> Setup -> Device -> Output and mark Swap X/Y and scale X=-1 and Y=-1.
    The model in the screen turns "head down".
    Let me know if that help you.
