After installing some update this issue reappeared for me.
I purged the all brother drivers (printer scanner fax),
reinstalled brother-cups-wrapper-extra and ran:
sudo brprintconf_mfc260c -pt A4
after which I could successfully print again.
I suppose I could have run that without
Copying the files this way seems to solve the problem for me. At least I
can no longer reproduce the problem with cut of text.

Title:
Brother
Installing the patch does nothing for me, either, with regard to paper size.
Of course, as well as paper size we sometimes want to change paper type and
resolution as well, and these options are no longer changeable with the Brother
drivers.
I have gotten no worthwhile advice from Brother in New
Well, try this, which HAS worked for me:
- opened the patch file with the archive manager.
- opened the folder ink3_patch_1.0.2-0 and then opened the folder bin.
- copied the file brcupsconfpt1.
- in a terminal, gksudo nautilus, go to /usr/Brother/Printer, trash the
brcupsconfpt1 that is there,
I can now confirm all my printer settings are reset when I print from
LibreOffice or Image Viewer, using the Ctrl+P print dialog, which is a
first for a very long time.
I can print DLE envelopes, first time I have managed this without a
major fight with Ubuntu, so I will no longer have to start

As I mentioned earlier, I have been in touch with the German brother
support about this bug. A few days a go they send me a file with updated
drivers. I was hoping some one else could also test them and give me a
response on whether they are working before I reply to the support
person.
Today I got a mail from brother support:
Run:
sudo dpkg-reconfigure libpaper1
There you can set the default settings for your computer which should affect
all printers. On english systems it seems to be set to letter instead of A4.
It doesnt solve the problem but its a more comfortable
I have confirmed this bug on my computer several times.

Shows that the Cups dialog is still displaying A4 even if the printer
settings were set to Letter, for example with:
sudo brprintconf_dcp560cn -pt Letter
** Attachment added: Print Dialog
In natty the bug is stll there: printed paged are cut off from the top,
I have selected A4 and I use A4 paper.
Will that bug get any attention one day ?!? It is more than one year old

Note that I told earlier that this is a bug in Brother's drivers. I have
already contacted the developers of Brother's driver packages and they
are working on LSB-based CUPS-conforming packages currently.
Please do not reopen this bug. It is not a Ubuntu bug.
** Changed in:
Note also that the Ubuntu packages of the Brother drivers (like brother-
cups-wrapper-extra) are all deprecated, as they caused a lot of work to
maintain and the volunteer creator and original maintainer of these
packages does not maintain them any more. So please do not report
further bugs on
Until natty, the drivers downloaded from brother website didn't have the
issue...

Brother CUPS wrapper
Got my hopes up way too soon about the drivers downloaded from Brother
(#13 above).
As suggested in #17 I too have contacted Brother, and I have to say
their lack of interest leads me to have little hope of them providing a
fix any time soon.
Does this problem plague other Debian distros, or is
Still happens on the latest Natty, so I've set this to new as it seems
to be the most appropriate status.

I just expirienced this bug with Maverick. I have A4 paper and A4 set in
the printer options and also in OpenOffice or any other programm i was
printing from.
It would always cut of the first 2-3cm of a page until I just found this
command in the bug report and ran it. It solved my problem
