Hello
I have a "Fuji Xerox DocuPrint P265 dw" printer connected to the wifi router. I had several attempts at writing the "airprint.service" script as suggested. Fuji hasn't got around to making a Linux driver yet.

I was wandering if someone can help me out with this issue. The question is about how to go about accurately identifying the following variables: name, rp, ty, adminurl and note.
I tried using "avahi-browse -alr", but gives multiple results for e.g. "rp".
Thanks for the help.

It looks as if AirPrint should work right out of the box for your printer - the linked wiki article is for advertising local printers not supporting AirPrint (eg an older USB printer) that there is an existing CUPS setup for so that AirPrint can be supported on these older devices.
For you it appears that you actually just want to print from your Arch computer to an AirPrint-enabled device. If that is the case, see instead the wiki article on cups-browsed. Alternatively you can add the printer manually, following the CUPS article, but remembering to use "everywhere" as the model (-m flag for lpadmin - there is an example in the CLI tools section specifically for AirPrint devices).
