hp 840c and CUPS
 

HP840c is conected through paralel port.
I started http://localhost:631/
and try to add printer, device for hp I look for parralel but there is only LPD/LPR host or printer, serial1-3, usb, and what ever I put printer doesn't work.
what to do?

Run the command /sbin/lsmod and have a look to see if you have modules 'parport' and 'parport_pc' loaded. If not, use modprobe to load parport first, and then parport_pc. These modules are needed to support any parallel port device.

You can also look to see if you have a /dev/lp0 device on your system. I'm guessing you have only one printer. If you have more than one, it could be /dev/lp1 etc.

root@darkstar:/etc/rc.d# modprobe parport
FATAL: Module parport not found.
root@darkstar:/etc/rc.d#

meybe I dodn't include something in my kernel, I know for sure that paralel port support is included, but PCstyle... and familiar things are not. What exacly I have to include in kernel to use paralel port support.

Sorry, I can't answer this question. I have never compiled a kernel. The two modules I gave you are the ones I loaded as KLM's to get my parallel port working. You may need to post a new thread to get this answered, unless someone who knows answers.
