In practice, you just change the device's name in its web ui. Then it's starts advertising the new name, and the old name stops working. 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.

On the subject of naming, it's not really necessary to change the name to give it a pretty display name in DNS... you can just give it a CNAME or something like that. That would at least give me one source of truth on naming without having to go to every grotty web interface on low end devices (assuming it exists at all).
