So, am I right in saying you want to plug a printer into the iphone? I can't see another way to do it :) Either you have a printer on you - and talk bluetooth or wifi to it - or you have a cable. The only other option, if you dont have any wireless connection, is to use a cable, and I've never seen a iphone-cable printer....
Bluetooth should work, tho I'm not sure how - there are BT printers around, but they would be too big to carry all the time (except a few things like small ticket printers / receipt printers) ?
