Our Verdict
Canon PIXMA G6020
Epson EcoTank ET-4850
The Epson EcoTank ET-4850 is better than the Canon PIXMA G6020. The Epson produces higher-quality black-and-white documents, and its wider color range results in more colorful photos. It also prints faster and yields significantly more pages. The Epson has an automatic document feeder, which the Canon lacks, and it produces better scans with more fine details and better color saturation.
