According to all the search engines I've tried, there is only one
recourse: contact Apple.  Then you have to convince them you haven't
stolen the printer.  Then, if they like, they'll tell you the master

*If* the netmask is correct, and the default gateway setting not needed,
a serial connection might be able to change the IP address only.
