In practice, you just change the device's name in its web ui. Then

If you have enough of a model of this to change the name, you also
know enough to select the printer under it's new name. Of course it
would be nice if we could have it publish some kind of announcement
about the name change.
If we have expectation of somebody configuring their printer with a web
UI, why should we not expect
the same for routers, or naming services?
IMO, people don't futz around with things unless there's a reason. But
they will if they want/have to. These things
need to be dumbed down to be certain, but I've never thought we need to
be hamstrung by the assumption
of zeroconf just because people don't currently have much of a
relationship with their networking gear.
