Ethernet -> Bluetooth. Possible?

Actually I found this
http://www.bluetooth-devices.co.uk/p...roducts_id=110

A Belkin combined Bluetooth Access point and USB printer server.
Only £111.63

I'm actually interested in that.
I was thinking of getting a print server anyway.
I want to know if it supports the printing profile or just PAN and TCP/IP
printing.
