    The first thing I would check is air flow. Lack of air flow--- Dirty evap coil, dirty filter, dirty cups on the blower wheel, blower motor RPM. The 45/195 is low pressure reading. Not knowing the inside and out side temps its hard to say. Then the metering device comes in to play. You didn't say if it was TXV or piston. And then the adage of low on freon.
