To use the wireless option you need to have a wireless router and you connect the printer wirelessly to that. If you don't have a wireless router you can try setting up an ad-hoc wireless network to connect the printer.

See the link below for how to setup an adhoc wireless network.

Create an Ad Hoc Wireless Network

As for the bluetooth - I assume you have a bluetooth dongle for the printer. Wireless and bluetooth conflict with each other so make sure you have the wireless adapter disabled when you try use the bluetooth option. If following the instructions in the manual for the printer don't work then I'm not sure there's much else you can try to get the bluetooth working.
