Consumer Reports tested the printers in the list. They can give you a reliable assessment of their quality. You can also find an estimate of what each printer will cost in the long term. This will assist you in deciding which printer is best for you. We will now discuss the Epson Expression Premium XP620 as well as the HP OfficeJet Pro 8710 (Canon MegaTank) printer.
Epson Expression Premium XP-620
The Epson Expression Premium XP-620 All-In-One Inkjet Printer delivers unmatched photo quality, with borderless prints up to 8"x10" and a 2.7-inch LCD display. It also features wireless connectivity and can produce sharp text and graphics. It is very affordable at just $130. Ink costs are also relatively low.
Consumer Reports' Best Buy is the Epson Expression Premium XP620. Its features include Wi-Fi direct printing, email printing, and remote printing. It also features an SD media slot that allows users print directly from SD card.
This printer uses the EcoTank system to save money on ink cartridges. It claims it can store up to two years worth of ink. It is more expensive than other printers but it saves you the cost of costly replacements. This is worth looking at if you require a low volume home MFP.
HP OfficeJet Pro 8710
The HP OfficeJet Pro 8710 is a top-quality color all-in-one printer with a plethora of features. It can print, copy, scan, and connect wirelessly. You also get four ink-ready cartridges. This printer is great for small groups of up to five people.
This HP printer comes with an impressive 850-page capacity for black ink and 420-pages for color ink. It costs just 2.2 cents per print for black ink and 8.9cents for color. Inkjet printers come with a six month trial.
The HP OfficeJet Pro 8710 Printer was introduced in 2007. It has modern features, but still remains affordable and good value for money. The U.S. has excellent support from HP and the printer is well supported. It is not worth the initial price.
Canon MegaTank printers
The Printers--All-in-One Test Program includes the Canon MegaTank PIXMA G3260. This program evaluates different models of printers according to their print quality. Higher scores are indicative of better quality and more consistent type and curves. The test also measures the speed at which five pages can be printed. The printer should take less than 14 seconds for five pages to print. This is generally considered excellent. A printer that takes longer than 29 seconds to print five pages is rated fair, while a printer that takes over 39 seconds is rated poor.
Canon MegaTank Pixma G4210 is an all-in one tank printer that costs $300. This is $300 less than a comparable model using inkjets. This printer's running costs are $18 per page after three years and $30 after five years, saving the user over $300 compared to an inkjet printer. The Canon MegaTank G3202 tank-printer is even more cost effective. The average user prints 35 pages per month, which means that a super-tank model will save you money over time.
