why do you want to do it this way? Inkscape will trace if fr you,automatically.

To make all the lines darker /maybe easier for vectorizing ?

Just a thought .

Or maybe use a pen  tablet ? :-

try this....once you vectorize, remove the original bitmap or whatever,leaving the traced image. DO NOT SAVE yet...go to PATH then OFFSET. It should make the lines thicker. Just keep doing it til the lines are the way you want.

THEN save as.

Actually you are on to something there. Sometimes redrawing the file is the most eficient way to get the job done. Great Sharpie tutorial here http://www.signforums.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=43457&hl=poor
