You must install CUPS before you install this package if you want to use it with CUPS, else printing will fail because a filter will be missing.

Print fail (negative top offset) with A4 paper size because paper size conf is set to Letter and the Paper size manually defined isn't take.
To switch to a proper A4 printing you have to do :

sudo brprintconf_dcp195c -pt A4

There is a simple Solution: Somebody has fixed the pkgbuild, but not uploaded yet to the AUR:

The patch is:

< patch -p1 -i $startdir/systemd.patch

thanks for the quick reply, I'm not expert with CUPS

i missed the "/opt/brother/Printers/dcp195c/cupswrapper/cupswrapperdcp195c" command part

With this patch cups daemon is restarting using systemctl command (obviously if systemctl command is present) instead of calling /etc/rc.d/cups restart. If you want to add your printer you have to invoke this command as root:
/opt/brother/Printers/dcp195c/cupswrapper/cupswrapperdcp195c

how does this pak work?

I'm sure I'm doing something wrong: if I go to "add a printer" in CUPS admin page I can't find this printer model

I added a patch for basic systemd support.
