Actually, my favorite demonstration of how EVERY DEVICE ON THE NETWORK
MUST BE SECURE was to find a printer on the same subnet as something
sensitive (Mainframes work nicely for this demo) and then change the IP
address of the printer to match the IP address of the mainframe.

If there isn't a sensitive server handy, setting the printer to have the
same IP address as the Default Network Gateway for its network segment
is also an effective demo.
