I would guess the interface on the printer itself probably has a means
of changing the IP address.  Or, potentially, telnetting to it somehow.
nmap the IP and see what all is open...

Really, though, it might be easier if you just set up a DHCP server.
They're pretty easy to maintain and make adding or removing machines
from your LAN just that much easier.  :-)
