Is not a definitive workaround but to continue to use our Toshiba e-Studio with new Ubuntu distrib (12.04), first I've removed the cups package (and dependency) to install cups 1.5.0 (ubuntu 11 version).

Then download the source at http://www.cups.org/software.php?VERSION=1.5.3&FILE=cups/1.5.0/cups-1.5.0-source.tar.gz then compile it.
At compile time the --enable-dbus option seems to be necessary (Be sure to check if DBUS is found in config.log, if not, install dbus-1-dbg using apt (or libdbus-glib-1-dev I don't remember, I tested several *dbus*)

Make && make install. All seems to work like a charm.
