Install the software for the HP672C printer,
and it will create the LPT port.
Check BIOS setup to see if parallel port is well defined.

Try hand installing a LPT port. Go to control panel, add new hardware, don't search automatically, and select port, com or lpt. Choose LPT. I used to lose my com ports all the time and had to reinstall them. Never tried with an LPT, though it was an option.
