Our Verdict

Epson Expression Home XP-4200

Epson WorkForce WF-2950

The Epson Expression Home XP-4200 and Epson WorkForce WF-2950 are extremely evenly matched budget home office printers. The XP-4200 has a slightly greater page yield, resulting in slightly lower printing costs. Meanwhile, only the WF-2950 has a scanner with an automatic document feeder, which lets you process multiple single-sided pages quickly.
