I have a personal laptop that I would like to connect to a domain at
work. The only thing I'll be using the domain for is printer access,
internet access, and access to some data folders where I can save
documents for others to see. What are some ways I could do this while
still maintaining the integrity of my personal profile?
 
I believe it's allowed to share profile between domain and local. Though
they can co-exist on the same machine. Maybe I was wrong....
But I have tried many way but unsuccessful, I have to log off the local and
log in the domain.
 
Do I need to log in to the domain in order to have access to the
domain printer and internet? As for the directories on a domain hard
drive, could I map to this without logging in? I do have an account on
the domain.

You should talk to whoever administers the domain if there is a problem, as
they will obviously know far more about how they've configured the network
than a bunch of random people on the Internet.

You should be able to connect to those resources and just supply your domain
credentials when asked for a username and password. Supply domain
credentials with the username in one of the two following formats:
"domain-name\username" or
"(e-mail address removed)"
