Refling against cups for what it's worth at this stage...

Title:
Printer dialog paper type is not used, instead MODELrc is used
Status in cups package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
I have the problem that after every Cups update (I think) my printer
is cutting the top of the printout because it is using Letter instead
of A4.
The problem lies within that the printer settings (GUI) paper type is not
used, instead the driver settings file in
/usr/local/Brother/inf/brDCP7030rc is used.
If I set the paper type in the file to A4 all is good, however every
now and then it is set back to letter, I think after a cups update,
but might be a different package.
I'm on Kubuntu Trusty.
Proposed solution: Printer dialog should take precedence over hidden
config file.
Here's a blog post on it that has about 20 page impressions a month:
