Air pressure is determined by your gross axle weight. Once you know how much the camper weight(axle/tire weight) is, you can inflate the tires to the correct pressure.
You can find a inflation table showing the correct weight to air pressure ratio at the tire manufactures web site.
Over inflation or under inflation can cause tire overheating, which will lead to blow outs and shorter tread life. Get it right if you care about your your camper, as many have been lost due to tire inflation issues.
As far as getting the right weight take it to a public scale, even better if you can weight each tire separately.
