Can you please do

HP Deskjet 840C on Parallel Port
Note that the bug is that the printer is not autodetected, you can get it to
work by selecting things manually. (This is mentioned in the original report
:-))
What I did:
1. Check that the hplip-ppds package is installed at the above version. (It
is!)
2. System-Administration-Printing and
please recheck with hplip-ppds0.9.6-1ubuntu8, selecting the HPLIP
driver for this printer
