What would happen if a user has a printer at work at (private) IP 
address 192.168.0.15, and has a completely different printer at home 
which happens to be at the same private IP address?

Can the system handle that? Or will the poor user have to reassign the 
IP address for one of those printers?

(The fact the identifier would be the same for both is why it looks 
suspicious - using IPv4 address as global identifiers doesn't work since 
private IPv4 addresses are commonplace.)
