If you are using an AirPrint enabled printer, it does not use Bluetooth, it uses wi-fi and has to be connected to the same wi-fi network as the phone. See this support document for troubelshooting AirPrint. http://www.apple.com/support/iphone/assistant/airprint/

I think you should re-read the documentation that came with your printer.
