Dear sir,

I have following problems.

1. My machine is PII 300 MHz. 64MB ram 4.3 GB HDD. I am using it as a=
 server.

I have done setup for the printer using printtool X window. My printcap=
 file is as follows

#
# Please don't edit this file directly unless you know what you are doing!
# Be warned that the control-panel printtool requires a very strict format!
# Look at the printcap(5) man page for more info.
#
# This file can be edited with the printtool in the control-panel.


##PRINTTOOL3## LOCAL 
lp:\
	:sd=3D/var/spool/lpd/lp:\
	:mx#0:\
	:sh:\
	:lp=3D/dev/lp2:

My printer is EPSON Stylus-1000 B/W .

It prints fine from some applications. like MS Word. but from MS Excell it=
 always eject the page after half printing. Then it will print balance page=
 after inserting a paper. Many times it will not print part of data in=
 middle of page.

 To isolate problem I connected the printer to a node running WIN98. Using=
 printer sharing . All print jobs are OK.

Any more setting are requred to use printer from server? I was using same=
 printer from my novel NetWare server without any problems.

2. I have purchased a Ethernet card Dlink make, model SN5100TX . this is=
 32bit PCI  / IEEE 802.3 100BAse-TX card. This works fine wit WINDOWS95/98.=
 Which module should be used for this card. I tried all the modules=
 available for RedHAT Linux 5.1. ( I have purchased RedHAT Linux 5.1). I=
 want to know where I can get the module for this card. Along with card=
 they have given SCO Unix drivers.

Thanks in advance. 

Best Regards

Deepak Joglekar.
