I've never had that experience myself. I've had a (DHCP-connected) network printer that I had to specify the IP for manually when I removed avahi (yes, that's a dangerous thing to do; but we had all of 192.168.*.* and maybe six network devices connected to a WRT54G router, so there wasn't a collision). On the other hand, I've also had avahi cause a kernel panic, apparently triggered by a printer. That was with Ubuntu "Lucid", right around release (it could have been before release, since I tested that one).
