How to Open a Brother DCP-115C Scanner & Install an Ink Cartridge
The Brother DCP-115C is a scanner that connects to a computer or network through a USB cable. Depending on how frequently the scanner is used, you'll need to replace ink cartridges every few months. Since it's a color scanner, you may need to change different colors at different times. When a color needs to be replaced, a notice will pop up on your computer or network. Otherwise, you'll see it on the LCD screen on the scanner itself. Replacing the ink is easy and should take only a few minutes.
