I just found this. Maybe it will help.

If you don't have a postscript printer, you'll have to install one first.
Go to "This computer", open the "Printers" folder, and run the "Add
printer" wizard. The Apple Laserwriter is near the top of the list and
is a postscript printer. Choose "File" as the port.

This _should_ give you the option of making a .ps (postscript) file.
Inkscape will import that. *smile*
