"Bli" is infinitive so the corresponding form ("är" is present tense) would be "blir". "Boken blir tryckt i Kina" means it will be printed in China. Another way of using "bli" would be to use past tense - "boken blev tryckt i Kina" - the book was printed in China; as opposed to the original "the book is printed in China.

tryckas is the infinitive passive, trycks is the present tense, and tryckt the participle.

This sentence is boken trycks... A prior sentence was tidningarna trycks... Trycks doesnt change for singular/plural?

No, Swedish never changes verb form for singular / plural. Practical, isn't it? :)
