Scan hangs trying scan a image with syslog errors

[Angel Guzman Maeso]

I have a multifunction printer with scan (Canon MG5250 Model). In raring (Ubuntu 13.04) with new kernel I have a regression and I cannot scan anymore. In syslog appears several errors and warnings when I try to scan with "simplescan" program in Ubuntu:

This also happends to me with a Samsung SCX-4200 and Ubuntu 13.04. In Ubuntu 12.10 everything worked fine, so I guess this is a regression. I have exactly the same syslog messages.

Is there any workaround?

Angel Guzman Maeso, as per https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases your release is EOL.

If this is reproducible with a supported release, it will help immensely if you filed a new report with it by running the following from a terminal:
