Coleman has a great website with great customer service. They can probably tell you exactly what is best for your particular stove. I think the biggest determining factor would be the connector type. If the disposable propane cylinders currently being sold at places like Wal Mart connect to your stove, I would presume you are safe.

Thats not a butane canister. Thats just a small LP cylinder. Lp is liquid petroleum wich is propane. If is a older stove it is not a butane stove. Only use propane in your stove. Butane came on the market only recently. Before that the two choices were white gas or propane.
However I cant be totaly sure what you have here. You say it is a butane stove and a lp stove. Read the labels on your stove to make sure. However if it is a picnic stove I’m almost 99% sure that it only uses propane. Coleman only uses butane in their backpacking stoves.
