[SOLVED] Can't print at HP LaserJet Pro MFP M28a

I want print on this printer without driver.

Output of avahi-browse -rt _ipp._tcp:

+     lo IPv4 HP LaserJet MFP M28a (076DE5) (USB)           Internet Printer     local

Output of ipp-usb check:

Configuration files: OK
IPP over USB devices:
 Num  Device              Vndr:Prod  Model
   1. Bus 001 Device 010  03f0:bf2a  "HP LaserJet MFP M28-M31"

CUPS don't see this printer as network printer. Setup is possible only with hplip, but that is what I don't want.
Is it possible to print on this printer with airprint?
Thank you for any answer.

Caveat: According to amazon (maybe rather consult the manual you got) this is neither a wireless nor airprint capable printer.

pacman -Qs 'ipp|cups'

You'll need
https://archlinux.org/packages/extra/x86_64/ipp-usb/
https://archlinux.org/packages/extra/x86_64/cups-pdf/

http://localhost:60000/

You could try to add the printer on
ipp://localhost:60000/ipp/print

Thank you seth for reply.
Your answer directed me in my search.
I added printer like this:

lpadmin -p HpLJM28a -E -v "ipp://HP%20LaserJet%20MFP%20M28a%20(076DE5)%20(USB)._ipp._tcp.local/" -m everywhere

Problem was that printer sometimes "disapear". Two things helped me.  I ran ipp-usb in debug mode and set for HP LaserJet MFP M28-M31 qirk like this:

[HP LaserJet MFP M28-M31]
init-reset = soft

Reading ipp-usb manual was very helpful for me.
Printer is working for now, but I am not sure that problem is really solved.
Marking as solved anyway.
