Step by Step Tutorial for Printing from iOS?

Are there any good step-by-step tutorials for enabling printing from within an iOS 5 application? I have an application that needs to have a basic template (looks like a ticket) that is filled with information from an object and then printed out on a local printer. I've read the basic AirPrint items on the iOS developer site but would like to find a good tutorial that puts it all together.
