Our Verdict

Canon PIXMA TR4720/TR4722

Epson Expression Home XP-4200

The Epson Expression Home XP-4200 is better than the Canon PIXMA TR4720/TR4722 for most uses. The Epson yields more prints and is cheaper to maintain. The Canon produces better color documents but prints slower than the Epson. Although the Canon has a wider color range and is more color-accurate for photo printing, it isn't as good as the Epson when it comes to small details.
