AirPrint is a just a brand name applied to the Internet Printing Protocol, although it uses Bonjour for discovery.

Kind of like Microsoft's brand new "Universal Print" is a brand name applied to the Internet Printing Protocol, although it uses Active Directory for discovery.

Google, recently announced they were killing CloudPrint to support IPP instead.
