Make sure you have the 'printer' module loaded (modprobe printer), and the
module for your USB interface, possibly 'uhci' or 'usb-ohci'. It's a safe
bet the default Gentoo kernel provides these modules.

After these are loaded (and maybe a restart of cupsd), you should be able
to add the printer via the web admin interface at http://localhost:631

Hope this helps,
