Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: system-config-printer

After installing the PPD for my Brother HL4040CN and printing a test
page, I had a look through the properties. After I pressed Refresh on
the "Ink/Toner Levels" page, the whole properties dialog resized itself
to be wider than my screen and won't allow itself to be resized any
smaller. It's about 1800 pixels wide on my 1280x1024 display; I grabbed
a screenshot (in two parts!) which I'll attach.

The PPD I'm using comes as a pair of .debs downloaded directly from
Brother (URLs below); it's entirely possible that the bug lies with
those packages but I would have thought that system-config-printer ought
to detect a situation like this.
