That did occur to me as well. The blazer manual doesn't mention anywhere that a ieee1284 cable is required. I have in fact used it under a windows screen reader using a standard non-bidirectional cable without issues. If a synthesizer supports indexing, would speakup enable it when using a serial port, and disable it when using a parallel port, or a different approach?
