Thought I would try this method for one off boards.
Question: what settings did you find best for Trace bitmap.....Never mind, I see the settings are somewhat different in this version of inkscape.
After some time spent mucking around with settings and many mistakes (still learning the program) I have found good results with single scan, speckles, smooth corners and optimise left unchecked.
And I didn't use Simplify, It might be ok for some, it gives a lot of rounded edges and curves but if necessary we can move the nodes to fix it up or widen the tracks.
Its also good to remove the underlying image that's hiding under the traced image...didn't see it there the first few times.
Going to try this with a K40 shortly.
Plenty of power...
