That sounds pretty cool, having access to the 'net on your falcon via a cable modem!!

As for the printer....
Hmmmm.... for starters, you would need to have *Falcon* drivers for the 750, and they would have to support talking to the printer over a LAN, not via the Falcons printer port.
I think the only way you would get that is if you wrote the drivers yourself :-)

The other possibility is to try to talk to the printer with an original "standard Epson" driver, or maybe even something later, and then trying to adapt that to work over a LAN. Of course, using an old driver, you wouldn't be able to use fancy new features of the 750, but at least you'd get some output from it.
Good luck :-)
