Printer Sharing Drivers Problem

The best printer in my house is my mom's which is hooked up to a computer with windows 2000 on it. I want to share that printer with my computer which is running windows xp. So i go to my mom's comp and go to printers, sharing all that good stuff. And you know there is that option that says download additional drivers for the printer if the computer you want to share with has a different windows installed on it. The problem is, since xp wasn't out when they made 2000 (duh) the xp drivers aren't available for download. What should I do?

Just share out the printer anyway and if the xp computer has trouble with it install the printer drivers off a disk. I really really don't think there will be an issue however.
