Our Verdict

Epson EcoTank ET-2720

Epson EcoTank ET-15000

The Epson EcoTank ET-15000 is better overall than the Epson EcoTank ET-2720. The ET-15000 is better built, has a sheetfed scanner, and prints pages much faster. It also has an Ethernet port and can print tabloid-sized paper. However, the ET-2720 produces slightly better quality documents, and while it isn't as color-accurate as the ET-15000, it can produce a wider range of colors and more details in photos.
