Confirming - Same problem with QL-500.  Works with 11.10 but not in
12.04.

I have managed to get it working, mostly*:

By setting the cups logLevel to debug2, I get "/bin/bash: rastertoptch:
command not found."  rastertoptch is installed in /usr/lib/i386-linux-
gnu/cups/filter but all other filters are installed in
/usr/lib/cups/filter.  So I tried creating a symbolic link to it in
/usr/lib/cups/filter.  Now I get "/bin/bash:
/usr/lib/cups/filter/rastertoptch: Permission denied."

A little more digging, I found that apparmor is not allowing access to
this lone filter.  So rather than the symbolic link, I actually copied
the executable to /usr/lib/cups/filter.  Now the printer works.

So it appears that the 12.04 package throws the rastertoptch filter
under /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/cups rather than /usr/lib/cups and cups is
not configured to look for it there.

* Although I now have the printer working, it does not always advance
between labels.
