I'm experiencing a problem like that with my Brother HL-2270DW in Ubuntu 12.10. Top and left margins are affected. A workaround is to print to a .ps file then print from that file. However a better solution is to use a Generic PCL6 Driver.

This leads to pages cut as if printing with wrong paper configuration though A4 paper is set everywhere (Cups settings, program settings). For example when printing a test page with the printer configuration tool I cannot see the upper part of the Ubuntu logo. I have used both a hardy and an intrepid live cd to test and found out that the problem only occurs using intrepid, so I think it's a problem with the intrepid driver packages. However I found out, that in the printer configuration tool a wrong driver "DCP-7025 BR-Script" is loaded. The correct (and working!) driver is "DCP-7025 for CUPS". So to manually solve the problem simply choose the correct driver in the tool. I think that during the installation process of the package "brother- cups-wrapper-laser" the correct driver is not set to be used as default driver and the system continues to use the wrong driver instead.
