I don't think a BT stack is required for that, as printers don't need one.

The printer doesn't. But anything that talks to the device does.

How are you supposed to make the Amiga talk to the device without the bluetooth stack?

Ah, so basically it's no "bluetooth" device in a sense. The protocol between could aswell be "redhair" or "greenblob" :-)

How do Linux developers get around this issue?

BlueZ - Official Linux Bluetooth protocol stack

Before you think about using it, read this

BlueZ was originally developed by Qualcomm Incorporated.

My guess is that Qualcomm somehow handled the license fee etc.
