Answer
Hi Satpal,
   Sorry for the delay. Please find the answers below....

i. You can use alter table

ALTER table <Table Name> ADD COLUMN <Column Name> <Data Type>
For example
   ALTER table test ADD COLUMN age N(3) DEFAULT 0


ii. For the issue with the delay, you have to set the spooling settings in the Printer settings from control pannel

iii. You can't directly print from DOS to USB. You can use any third party tools for the same.
Check for http://dos2usb.com

Hope this helps...
