DCP135C: Displaced print / edges cut

[Ekkehard Buth]

Binary package hint: cups

I'm using Brother DCP135C printer with Intrepid (9.04).
Printout of OpenOffice documents is shifted about 1/4'' to the left and 3/4'' to the top. In the result the upper and the left edge are cut.
Tried to fix in "system-config-printer 1.1.3". Test printout shows the same result.
Cross checked with openSuSe 11.1 DCP135C installation: printout in SuSe correct and unshifted. Comparison shows different Imageable Area settings:
                Page Size Lower-Left Upper-Right Resolution
Ubuntu 8.26x11.69 0.0x0.0 8.26x11.69 720x720
Suse 7.87x11.3 0.19x0.19 8.06x11.49 600x600
verified ppd-file and both are identical (except page size setting, but this is not the problem in this case).
Checked the bug report log of the system-config-printer help function and found:
               'D [26/Aug/2009:13:09:37 +0200] [Job 45] *** stack smashing detected ***: /usr/Brother/Printer/dcp135c/cupswrapper/brcupsconfpt1 terminated',
               'D [26/Aug/2009:13:09:37 +0200] [Job 45] ======= Backtrace: =========',

Seems some program crashing under way. Print continues however but is displaced. Manage to get complete printouts with 83% scaling, but printouts are reduced in size and white bar at page bottom.

sounds similar to what I experience in bug 529279

I think I've already reported this as bug 187598 (duplicate of bug 206365 -- which has apparently been resolved)

I've been circumventing the problem by using the packages from Brother's website instead of the ones in the repositories.
Since the original bug has supposedly been resolved I would like to raise question of the duplicate status for my bug as well as this one.

I'd like to see this fixed for Lucid so if you need any help testing, I can provide assistance. For starters I have attached a photo of the fresh test page print from my Lucid Alpha 3 install.

For me it is the same as bug 537854, marking as duplicate ...

I mark this one as duplicate and not the later reported bug 537854, as there is alreasy a patch attached to bug 537854.
