wine users - Jul 2009 - Install dell 1235cn laser error USB device not available

I am trying to install a Dell color laser printer on my ubuntu machine. I have
got through USB device support in wine and got lost in the registry part. When I
try to install the printer I get an error  USB device not available and that is
as far as I can get. Please don't asume I know about Linux as I am new to
Linux. thanks

Wine doesn't support USB drivers. You'll need native linux support for
printers.

You cannot install Windows hardware drivers in Wine.
