THANK YOU SO MUCH - IT WORKED!!

But, the program can't see my printer.  I think I have to create a symlink
in my ~/.wine/dosdevices.  I read the Sec. 3.3 in the Wine manual but I
still can't figure out exactly how to do this.  How do I determine the name
of my device as seen by Ubuntu/my program or do I just say "canon mp 600"? I
know the sample command is "ln -s /dev/lp0 lpt 1" according to the manual.
But, I'm having trouble making sense of this part.  Sorry about that but can
someone guide me?

Thank you so much AGAIN!  This is so cool!
