Welcome, I have a problem with pinout in parallel port. In test command hal first i unlink pin 14 out and next a set pin on "1" so i should have on pin 14 voltage 5v but this didn't work, i checked on everthing set parallel port in bios on mainboard. I add that engienes turn normal, and on pin dir pul is voltage.....

Pin 14 can be input or output.
Which mode have you set the port to? The LinuxCNC parallel port driver defaults to OUT
linuxcnc.org/docs/2.7/html/hal/parallel-port.html
But perhaps your config sets it to IN?
As a bidirectional pin it is just about possible that the pin needs a pull-up. Typically parallel port pins work best when wired as a (low current) switch-to-ground device.

I think that hal config is doesn't metter because i use this wiki.linuxcnc.org/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?TroubleShooting 15 point, so i delete all connection in hal and set value 1. I checked not only on 14 pin 17 and 1 also doesnt' working.... i haven't idea

Do you have the right parallel port address?
What does your "loadrt hal_parport" line look like in your hal file?
What do you get output, when you run this comand "cat /proc/ioports | grep parport" in a terminal?
I get this on on of my machines with 3 parallel ports.The number 0378 is the address for the first parallel port (on the mother board).
e050 is the 2nd port (on a PCI parallel port card).
And e030 is the 3rd port (also on the PCI card.)

Parallel port is right because stepper motor is turnning well but i haven't outputs: turn on spindle , left right coolant and other outputs when i set value 1

I still want to know if the port is set to out or in.
