The trick I mentioned above https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source
/brother-lpr-drivers-extra/+bug/206365/comments/49 isn't necessary any
longer. I have uploaded a new brother-lpr-drivers-common package.

@ Till:
The Brother drivers (at least them for inkjet printers) don't use the 
postscript code although it's included in some PPDs. They use their own bash 
scripts to set the printer options. These scripts need the alphanumerical 
resolution infos as something like a identifier. For example "Normal0" is 
interpreted by the script as 600dpi, plain paper and graph as document type.

In order to change the resolution section of the PPDs a great part (I guess 
30%) of the script has to be rewritten, because the options the resolution sets 
at once need to be separated.
If you think this is needed I can try to do that, but this will need some time.
As it works I suggest to leave the PPDs as they are (at least for the moment) 
to get this bug fixed.
