Disabling the Logon for Microsoft Networking

I am using an old Windows 98 PC as a printer server for my home LAN.

Cold boots and restarts require me to enter my Microsoft Networking Logon
Password.

Is there any way to disable (or bypass) this feature such that when the PC
starts or restarts no manual input is needed before the desktop comes up?

Thanks!

Steve
