Auto-login to domain from XP home

I have a network setup in my home office: one Windows 2000 Server and one
Windows XP Professional laptop. The laptop is a member of the domain
managed by the server so all is joy and happiness there.

I have two family computers, both running Windows XP Home, and I would like
to give them access to the printer in my office. The printer is shared and
when I add the printer I'm prompted for the user credentials to access it.
So far, so good.

When I reboot, however, the printer is still shared but the user credentials
have been forgotten. What I'd really like to do is one of the following:

1) Configure the printer share so that anyone can access it without any
credentials at all (ideally).
2) Add the credentials to the "Manage my network passwords" on the XP Home
machines.

Thanks.
