This AUR package provides drivers for the Brother DCP 145C printer only.
Recommended installation is direct from the AUR using your package manager of choice (e.g. yaourt -S brother-dcp-145c
).
To install from source, compile the package (using makepkg
), and then install the compiled *.pgk.tar.xz
using a package manager (such as pacman
).
Due to incompatibilities between the Brother drivers and CUPS, in order to change the paper size with correct printing alignment, it is necessary to edit a configuration file located at /usr/share/brother/Printer/dcp145c/inf/brdcp145crc
.
The default paper size is Letter. In order to change this to A4, change the line PaperType=Letter
to PaperType=A4
.
