The Cameo 4 Plus has arrived. I've not had chance to test it fully bus at least the basic cutting function works well.
The first annoyance is, unlike the Cameo 3, the pen holder blue adaptor will only fit in the left-hand (No.1) carriage slot. Solution: with the aid of a Stanley knife, cut away the two longitudinal protrusions on the rear of the adaptor.
The Cameo 4 Plus works well with inkscape-silhouette.
I posted a question (https://github.com/fablabnbg/inkscape-silhouette/issues/280) about the increased pressure for the second tool but no solution yet.
My wife has been successfully using her Cameo 3 with fablabnbg/inkscape-silhouette.
She's thinking of upgrading to a Cameo 4 but not sure which variant.
The fablabnbg GitHub site says:
This extension should work with the following devices:
Silhouette Cameo 4
Silhouette Cameo 4 Plus
Silhouette Cameo 4 Pro
I'd be interested to hear of people's experiences, especially features which don't work.
Thanks
Nobody using a Cameo 4 with Inkscape? Really?
I have just installed Inkspace and I also have a Cameo 4 Pro. I will keep an eye open to see how I can use this software with the machine
Coincidentally I ordered a Cameo 4 Plus today, should arrive tomorrow.
A couple of entries here https://github.com/fablabnbg/inkscape-silhouette/issues suggest that it does work. I'll soon be able to answer my own question!

Inkscape work? How you like the cutter?
