Our Verdict
Epson EcoTank Photo ET-8550
Canon PIXMA PRO-200S
The Epson EcoTank Photo ET-8550 is better than the Canon PIXMA PRO-200S for most uses. The Epson is more versatile as it has a scanner and prints documents much faster. In terms of photo printing quality, the Epson isn't as color-accurate, as it tends to oversaturate colors, but it can reproduce finer details with better clarity. The Epson is also the better option if recurring cost is a concern because it's a supertank model that yields significantly more prints.
