Our Verdict

Epson Expression Photo HD XP-15000

Epson WorkForce Pro WF-7840

The Epson Workforce Pro WF-7840 and Epson Expression Photo HD XP-15000 are both wide-format printers. The WF-7840 is the better choice for office settings, as it produces nicer-looking documents and has much faster printing speeds. It also has an ADF-equipped scanner. By contrast, the XP-15000 is the superior choice if you print photos. It has an exceptionally wide color gamut, so photos look detailed and vibrant.
