Perhaps it is a Voice Dream issue?

Once you have the printer on WiFi, just try printing an email or something and
sea if it finds the printer.
Or, as others suggested, see if there is an app that is required.
You could do a web search for the printer model and printing from an iPhone and
see what you find.
