Our Verdict
Canon PIXMA TS6420a
Epson Expression Home XP-5200
The Epson Expression Home XP-5200 is better than the Canon PIXMA TS6420a. The Epson produces higher-quality prints and scans, and its ink cartridges last longer, lowering its cost-per-print. The Epson also prints documents nearly twice as fast as the HP. However, the Epson requires more maintenance, as its nozzles clog more easily. Additionally, the Epson printer's design isn't as user-friendly, as it's harder to access paper jams.
