The problem with the Chinese lasers is that the Chinese, although they like to steal everyone ELSE'S IP, are not keen on it happening to them, and they refuse to reveal their file formats.
Try and crack the format, and then you can look at writing control software. I made a cursory attempt to look at mine, but haven't got anywhere yet - there is a LOT of apparently wasted space in there when you look.
The only alternative is ripping out their cruddy controller and replacing it with something that works with Mach 3 or EMC2.

There are many DIY cnc machine control softwares out there. Google for them and see what you find.
