Comment 73 for bug 357732

Having kind of this issue on my Ubuntu Xenial (16.04) with Brother MFC Laser-Printer. The printer worked fine on the same system for over 1 year and suddenly every(!) custom settings from GUI printing dialog was ignored. I need papersize A4 but always got letter format.

The only workaround I found was to set A4 hard-coded in default PPA file. But since today I can't switch dublex-printing or switch from color-printing (default) to black and white!

Very annoying and I don't know what may have changed between once working and stopped ignoring my custom printing settings for a new printing-job.

In my case there already is '/usr/lib/cups/filter/pstopdf'.

Reinstalling the packages 'cups-filters cups-filters-core-drivers' didn't help.
